Our eleven branches are all active, despite the very rural and sparsely populated nature of some of them.

Visitors are warmly welcome and details of our practices and meetings can be found by date in the What’s on listing and on the Towers and Branches pages.

Please use our tower contacts if you would like to check local details or make specific arrangements such as for outings. Most towers ring for Sunday services, sometimes arranged on a rota basis with others nearby, and ringing at all levels is encouraged.

The Association continues to flourish with the goodwill, enthusiasm and support of its members in promoting the art of change ringing throughout the Diocese which in 2009 celebrated the 1100th anniversary of its foundation.

Peter Tudball

It is with great sadness that we announce the death of Peter Tudball.  He was a member of the Association for 78 years, a Member Emeritus and a stalwart of Dunster tower until a few years ago, when the stairs got too much. Peter’s funeral will take place on Friday 27th February, St. Georges Church, Dunster at 12.00, and afterwards at the Tithe Barn, Dunster.  Assemble at 11.15 for general ringing prior to the funeral, anyone who would like to join us to ring for Peter would be most welcome.

Gwilym G Salmon

We are saddened to announce the death on 10th February of Gwilym Salmon. Gwilym was elected as a member of our Association in 1950 and was a well known member of the Wells Cathedral Band and of our Association. He lived in Dunedin, New Zealand for the latter years of his life, but will be well remembered by longer serving members.

May he rest in peace and rise in glory.
