Trinity Changebell Ringers
picture coming soon

The Handbell Choir rings "tunes" and "melodies" but the Changebell Ringers ring a very different form of music.  The music of Changebell ringing is in "methods" and "patterns."  The effect is like that of towerbells that peal.  (Because that's how it started.)

This is the type of bell ringing that is still done in bell towers all across England, and a few places in the US.  As Trinity only has one bell in our bell tower, we do our change ringing on handbells (which was popular during WWII in England).  

For more information about changebell ringing visit this site:
All Saints (Workingham)

The Changebell Ringers are open to anyone in the parish who is free on Thursday Mornings.  We're a group who come together for Fun, Fellowship and praising God through music.  Previous experience and reading music are helpful, but not necessary, we are more than happy to teach you.  If you've ever thought "That looks like fun," or "I think I could do that," feel free to just show up for a rehearsal, or talk to Kevin (our music director) after the 8:30 or 11:00 service.

In a nutshell:

Rehearsals: Thursday Mornings, 10 - 11am, in the basement

Rings: Quarterly and for Festival Eucharists
