Fundraising Aims - What do we need to raise funds for?
There is no avoiding the need to rehang our bells with mainly new ringing fittings, this having been strongly recommended by a local bell hanger some 12 years ago and now being very much more urgent. This would include rehanging all six bells with new fittings of modern design and with all hanging radii, wheel diameters and clapper throws carefully calculated. This would bring about a transformation in the ease with which the bells could be rung. It is the case that most of the gear dates from 1887 and thus whilst it has certainly given very good value for money its design is dated and its life is finite.

I do hope everyone gets to contribute, it's always lovely to hear the bells on a Sunday Morning.
