Welcome to the Welsh Colleges website
The Welsh Colleges Society of Change Ringers was established for in 1959, and is made up of students and former students of Welsh colleges and universities, and their friends and families.
The Society holds its Dinner and AGM in February, as well as holding three other tours in the Autumn, at Easter, and in the Summer. In addition, members also take part in other events, such as the Master's quarter peal tour, striking competitions, and occasionally, peals.
Objectives of the Society:
To promote the ringing of church bells for Divine Service
To foster the art of change ringing, in our Colleges, and in the Principality
If you are studying in Wales, or used to (and ring bells preferably), then why not get in touch with us?
We have also produced a contact list for those ringing at university in Wales.
Sign up to our Email List for announcements regarding tours.
