Dear all, with the Covid 19 emergency, and following Government guidance, I am writing to inform you that the VE Day celebrations planned for the weekend of 8 to 10 May 2020 have been cancelled. I know many of you planned to ring, either as part of a local event, or at 7pm on the evening of 8 May as part of the national celebrations.

It is hoped that events already planned can be moved to the weekend of 15/16 August, to celebrate VE Day and VJ Day, both momentous points in our history.  I am sure that bell ringers will be asked to play their part in the celebrations again, so I will be in touch when I know more.

I hope everyone is keeping safe, but I am sure that, like me, you are missing your bell ringing.

Best wishes,

Hilary Hardie
