Bell Tower Community Association An independent non-profit organisation aiming to generate community spirit and promote the interests of local people in our small corner of Reading, UK.

The Bell Tower Community Association's area is near Caversham Road, Reading, centred on E P Collier School. The association is completely independent, with no affiliation to any political or religious organisations. For those unfamiliar with the area, Reading is a town of about 150,000 inhabitants, 40 miles west of London. It is at the heart of the Thames Valley, often known as the UK's 'Silicon Valley' because of its concentration of high-tech industries.
