There have been bellringers at Christ Church since the bells were installed in 1788. The present band of ringers is keeping alive a tradition going back more than 220 years, but at times we struggle to ring more than 6 of the 10 bells we have available to us. To enable us to ring all 10 bells we need to recruit more ringers to join us; then once again 10 bells will ring out over North Shields for Sunday services. If you haven’t rung before and would like to find out what’s involved: call Mike Hewitt on  0191 258 1994 or e-mail learntoring@christchurchringers.org.uk AND if you have rung before we would like to tempt you back! Please get in touch using the details above.
