Opportunity to try your hand at church bell ringing
An event is set to offer people the chance to try church bell ringing.
Upper Sheringham's All Saints Church will host the session on July 19, between 10.30am and 3pm, as part of its summer fair.
The opportunity allows individuals to explore the historic practice of bell ringing, with no prior musical or mathematical skills necessary.
The bell ringing activity aims to debunk common misconceptions, such as the need to leave the floor or the risk of flying through the air.
Organisers Sue Morton and Shaun Purbrick say the event is open to all, but attendees under 18 years old must be accompanied by an adult.
Participants only need to be able to climb a short spiral staircase, stand comfortably, and raise their arms above their heads.
A statement from the organisers said: "This could be the start of an amazing new hobby for you."
For more information, potential participants can contact Sue Morton, Upper Sheringham Tower Captain, at suejmorton@ or 07957 229866.
