I visited The Mancroft Ringing Discovery Centre (MRDC) for one of their Young Ringers sessions, where young people aged 7 to 19 explore method bell ringing.

The MRDC is an outstanding facility, offering bell ringers the chance to learn and develop new skills. It features eight training bells and a ringing simulator to provide a comprehensive learning experience.

A visit to the Centre also offers a fascinating insight into the history of bell ringing in Norwich, with impressive displays documenting records, including the first-ever peal of 5040 changes on seven bells, rung in 1715.

Sessions at St Peter Mancroft are open to all ages serving as both a friendship and support group as well as an engaging hobby for both mind and body.

The Centre is always welcoming new members. If you are interested in joining, please visit: https://www.mrdc.org.uk/contact_form/
