Bell ringing - open sessions in May for tower and hand bells

01 May 2012

There are two open days in May for anyone of any age who wants to try ringing tower or hand bells. The first open day is at St German’s Cathedral in Peel on Saturday 12th May from 2-4pm. ‘Come and experience what you hear but don’t see! There is no charge, but donations are welcome.’ says Treasurer, Louise Horsfall. On Sunday 13th May, again 2-4pm, there will be the chance to learn the basics of hand bells at Peel Sailing and Cruising Club. No musical ability is required and the event is again free. Both groups play a mixture of music, including Manx music, which they have arranged themselves. With grants from the Manx Lottery Trust and the IOM Arts Council, the Isle of Man Bellringers are going from strength to strength. Book your places now!
