Thank you to Kris and the team for hosting the 4th learners practice which was held at Burghill on Sunday 14th July. The event was extremely well attended by ringers from Hereford, Bromyard, Bridgnorth and Clifford & Kington Districts, and well supported by helpers from the same districts. It is really great to see those who have attended past sessions growing in confidence and making such good progress.
We are lucky enough to always get positive feedback from those attending, however this time we’ve included a couple of testimonials from a learner and a helper.
From Julia (from Bredenbury, learning to ring at Bromyard):
“This was my first time to Burghill church and to the learner’s session. It was a great way to meet other learners from different groups and to practice ringing rounds together in groups of 6 and 8, with our respective teachers there for support and guidance. Also, I enjoyed the opportunity to ring a different set of bells which felt a little smoother that what I was used to ringing. Thanks, Sue, for being there to provide the teacher help and guidance.”
From Cathy (Bromyard & Cradley ringer, recently completed the ART course in teaching bell handling)
“Excellent, well attended training afternoon. Trainers were responsive to each individual. All learnt something, including the more experienced ringers and trainers. Tea and cake most welcomed. Thank you.”
Details of the next session will be announced shortly, and we look forward to seeing you all very soon.
