Tewkesbury Abbey Bell Ringersclipart of bell

  • A unique hobby for whole families from 9 - 90

  • Very sociable group participation - you'll make friends for life

  • Service to the Church - you will soon be able to make an important contribution

  • Lots of brainwork if you like it - but this is optional!

  • Healthy light exercise - you don't need to be big and strong

  • It helps if you have a sense of rhythm and reasonable co-ordination - you don't have to be a musician
