Essex Ringing Course 2027 – have your say!
Dear EACR Members, Essex Ringing Course 2027 – have your say! Please put 8–10 April 2027 in your diary for the 36th Essex Ringing Course, which will be held at Lift New Rickstones
Founded at Writtle, near Chelmsford, in 1879 the Association predates the Diocese of Chelmsford by some 35 years. Its boundaries are those of the old county of Essex prior to 1st April 1965. With a membership of over 1000, the Association is committed to the furtherance of the work of the Church by ringing bells, promoting bells and bell ringers, and keeping the bells of Essex churches ringing.
This is achieved by giving help and advice in the maintenance of bell installations, by making grants available for restoration and improvement projects, and by offering opportunities for training and advancement in ‘method ringing’.
