Do something amazing - Give Blood
Message from the NSACR
The committee has again reluctantly decided to cancel the Ringing Meeting planned for 5th February. This was to be our New Members meeting at Stone and we felt that it was not sensible to invite members into quite such a snug ringing chamber, even with the improved ventilation, in the current circumstances.
We hope that the March Meeting will be able to continue and this will now be our New Members Meeting combined with a brief business meeting. We are looking at a different venue for this meeting as we are not now able to go to Cheadle RC, so plan to go to a tower with a ground floor ringing chamber to give better ventilation. The details will be shown on the website and emailed out when they are confirmed.
A couple more peals of interest
I was lucky enough to be asked to ring in a couple of peals in Shropshire.
1. 5040 Grandsire Triples at Hodnet
Further details of the peal at Hodnet can be found here:

2. 5040 Mixed Minor at Hinstock
