Welcome to the first newsletter from the Survival and Recovery team – an ART, CCCBR partnership. It's a one-stop shop for news – what's happening and what we are planning to happen which complements the BellBoard Virtual Hub.
We are also sharing some short, topical local stories as a way of sharing good ideas. We really want to hear from you if you have a local story to tell about how you have kept your band of ringers together, with the aim of publishing positive stories to inspire others. Send your stories to Mary Jones at mary.jones@bellringing.org. In this edition of the newsletter, we’ve included some ideas from around the UK about what ringing groups are doing to prepare for Christmas, despite restricted availability of their usual bells.
If you have found the newsletter useful and interesting then why not forward it to your ringing friends – the more the merrier!
