Please contact Sue Bassett, KCACR Training Officer to discuss your training
needs, ART course requirements or queries that you may have about learning to ring, improving your
ringing abilities or learning to teach ringing.
The following Ringing hubs welcome any aspiring ringer or improver, as well as learner teachers to
hone their skills in a supportive environment. We aim to build your confidence in whichever area
you need assistance with. This could be anything from handling problems, raising & lowering
techniques, improving bell control through fun exercises to ringing of rounds, call changes, plain
hunt and beyond. Spaces can be limited to ensure sufficient teacher support is available to help you
so early booking is advisable. Please also advise us of your learning needs at the time of booking so
that sessions can be tailored to suit.
In addition, any ringer who wishes to learn how to teach others to ring, is encouraged to undertake
an Association of Ringing Teachers (ART) training course. Courses are listed at ART Events – Events
List (bellringing.org) and dates and venues to suit you can be arranged through ART. KCACR
Treasurer will even refund the £30 course fee to KCACR members.
Attendance at these hubs is by request to the organiser. Please check first!
