Ringing in the New Year 2015 / 2016
We used to ring the New Year in at midnight on New Year's Eve but had difficulty getting sufficient ringers. In recent years we have therefore rung at noon on New Year's Day and this year we did just that.

February 7th.  The North Wales Association of Church Bell Ringers (Gwynedd & West Clwyd Branch) held its Annual General Meeting at Holy Trinity. A reasonable attendance enjoyed ringing, followed by a short service of evensong, tea, and the AGM itself. 

Three of our ringers were appointed or re-appointed as officials.

January 12th.     A visit to the tower by a young man called Jack from Penrhyndeudraeth together with his carer Cari Mai. Jack is very keen on churches and bells and it was a pleasure to show him round and give him a go on the treble bell.
