For those who are interested in trying out bell ringing after this please go and ask at your local towers - many of them will be more than happy to teach you and some places have their own schemes.

Thereβs is a shortage of bell ringers across the country and the world. If youβd like to have a go, please go and find your nearest church with change ringing bells on their practice night and ask to join them

The man with Parkinsons is very correct, the physical and mental work will absolutely slow the progression of neurodegeneritive diseases. Wish the best for him, abd that he can keep it ringing for years to come.
Over the years that I've made videos, hundreds of people have suggested bellringing. Finally: this one's for you. | π° AD: And thanks to Ground News: you can get 40% off their Vantage plan at ground.news/tom
