A request has been received by the Central Council of Church Bell Ringers from Government for bells to be rung to mark the 70th Anniversary of Victory in Europe (VE Day). If possible, the desire is for bells to be rung at 11am on Saturday 9th May or alternatively at other convenient time over the weekend Friday to Sunday 8th-10th May. Although there are other demands for special ringing coming up we hope that this can be given due support. The Church of England has also been approached by Government so church authorities should be aware of the reason for additional ringing.

Of course this is AGM Day in Sussex but I hope that you may find a way to commemorate this special 70th Anniversary as well as being present at the AGM in Hastings.

If you are able to print and display this poster in your tower - thank you!
