As soon as our bells are back in the tower we'll be looking to recruit some more ringers. The article below is not just about young people ringing, (there's also a chap in there who's 94). Bell ringing is a wonderful activity for all ages and in this age of AI it's a completely first hand, practical and human experience!

Katie Anderson says making music with others is an antidote to screens and scrolling.

AT SAINT ANDREW'S HALSTEAD!

On 19th September St Andrew’s Halstead are joining in Essex Association’s invitation to have an open tower on the national Heritage Weekend. From 10am to 2pm there will be demonstrations of change ringing in the tower, a mobile belfry outside for anyone to try and children’s handbells for the youngsters. It’s open to anyone and free, so if anyone has some people who may be interested in ringing it’s a good opportunity for them to have a go.



There will also be other children’s craft activities, tours of the church and plenty of tea, coffee and cake. To conclude the event, at 1.30pm our organist will be playing a selection of bell related music. So plenty for non bellringers as well!
