Some practices are subject to confirmation that enough people intend to be present. Members receive an invitation shortly before each practice. It is confirmed as soon as enough people have said they intend to be present but it may be cancelled of there are too few. Invitations and confirmation are sent via the members e-mail list.

* Monthly training courses alternate between 'basic' (anything up to Plain Bob Minor) and 'advanced' (anything else). The actual content on any month is chosen to suit the needs of the participants booked to attend.
* Some practices are provisional, subject to confirmation. Members are circulated shortly before the planned date, and providing enough indicate that they will be able to attend, the practice is confirmed by e-mail. Anyone not on the Branch members' e-mail list should check with the Ringing Master .
