Try bell ringing in Barlborough!

Ever wanted to try Bell Ringing? Our team at Barlborough are always looking for new members. There is no age limit; 8-80yrs is common; still ringing at age 90 is not unusual.  It is not hard work nor does it require exceptional strength. All that is required is enthusiasm and commitment. Practice night at Barlborough is Monday at 7-8pm. Feel free to call our Tower Captain, Jenny Mosley on 01246 810066 for more information.
