    Being new to the role of Public Relations officer, I have found it difficult to develop a list of potential media contacts. Even finding out which regions of the BBC/ITV networks cover our guild is a headache!
  • Public Appreciation of Quality
    I think Simon has made a very valid point about not wanting to be too critical and put ringers off. Statistically we have many more bells than ringers and I know of many churches that struggle to get a band for service ringing. A compromise may be to have some pieces of ringing where the emphasis is simplicity but good striking, balanced by some ringing that allows learners (of all abilities) to flourish. My caveat is that Sunday service ringing should always be the best ringing possible with the ringers available.
