It was lovely to see all our bell ringers participating in the Nation-wide half-muffled ringing at midday today in respect of the passing of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.

Bolton Branch came up trumps with a fantastic four-day ringing bonanza over the Jubilee weekend and in the process managed to get six people through their first quarter peal. Why not watch their video of the four-day event.

We are really pleased that this promotional video has been released having been filmed by the Churches Conservation Trust before the pandemic. Our thanks to George Reynolds for his film-making expertise and thanks to all the bell ringers who took part and made this possible. Enjoy!

All Souls, Bolton BL1 8EY

All Souls Guild of Church Bell ringers was formed in 2017 with a mission to start up a home-grown band completely from scratch and to promote the art of bell ringing in the community. This is our success story so far…

The eight bells of All Souls were installed for the dedication of the church in June 1881 and were rung regularly for services and other important occasions until 1986, when the church closed, and then they were only rung occasionally by visiting bands of ringers.

In 2004 local community members approached the owner of the building - The Churches Conservation Trust - to explore putting it back into use as a community facility and social space. Following extensive consultation with the local community and a project development grant from the Heritage Lottery Fund, The Churches Conservation Trust has transformed All Souls into a community building. An innovative design has seen the installation of pods within the church creating ‘a building within a building’, a design that has left the historic fabric largely untouched. All Souls is now a thriving business and community centre with a focus on heritage and education.
