Bellringing at York Oratory

Bellringing at York Oratory represents an experience of the change ringing practice that’s been heard across the UK since the 17th Century. These photographs capture a community of bellringers taken at their weekly practice night. Below are Joe’s and Megan’s experiences of bellringing.

Joe, "I have been bellringing for 15 years, but I believe it took me about 3 months to learn how to handle a bell. I enjoy the challenge that comes with it". 
Megan, "I have been bellringing for 10 years, although technically since being born; I’m born into a bellringing family. I enjoy the sense of community".
