Glenda Rowley

Glenda started ringing at Stone in 1951 and was an ever present member of the band until very recently. She took part in several peals and many quarters, and was always on hand to help with social events. She will be much missed.
The funeral is at Stone church on Thursday 8th May at 2pm. Ringing from 1:15pm is open to all.

Young Ringers - Sun 18th May

Welcome bellringers aged under 30. Welcome if you can call spliced, or just about handle a bell, and any standard between.
Come and have fun ringing with young people. You are welcome to bring your non-bellringing friends so we can signpost them to suitable lessons at convenient towers.
