At Christ Church, Epsom Common, we are always pleased to welcome anyone who would like to try bellringing.
No previous experience is needed, and you do not need to be particularly strong or musical. Ringing is about technique, timing and teamwork, and learners are taught gradually and at their own pace by experienced ringers.
Bellringing is enjoyed by people of all ages and backgrounds. It can be as simple or as challenging as you want it to be, and once you have learned, you can ring in towers all over the country.
Our ringing chamber is reached by climbing 36 narrow winding stairs, so you do need to be comfortable climbing up to the tower.
We practise on Wednesday evenings from 8.00–9.30pm at Christ Church, Epsom Common KT19 8NJ .
If you are curious, you are very welcome to come along, meet us and see what ringing is all about.

Change ringing is the art of ringing bells in changing patterns, with each ringer controlling one bell as part of the team.
The english style of bellringing is often called full-circle ringing, as the bell’s connection to a wheel allows it to rotate 360 degrees. A ringer must pull the bell at each stroke to make it rotate again for another full circle swing. Each time the ringer pulls the rope the bell swings and sounds.
