Welcome

We are the organisation for church bell and handbell ringers in South Wales, UK.

The Calendar is the definitive reference of what is happening, where and when. Please consult it before attending events and practices to check arrangements. Better still, add the Calendar to your PCs and smartphones for your own copy which automatically updates as and when changes are made.

Register to post in the Forums, submit News & Links, send messages to other Users and comment on articles and News; comments appear in the Forums automatically.

Constructive feedback is welcome, either in the Forums here or by email to the Webmaster.

This website is both secure and mobile-friendly!!

There are no ringing events on the Calendar other than Management Committee Meetings and the Association AGM. These are online events and pre-registration for the AGM is required.

To receive Branch and Association updates and information, newsletters, etc, by email as the situation evolves, please consider subscribing to the relevant Mailing List(s).
