A week’s bell ringing training and practice for some of the locals who had signed up to become part of the band at St George’s Memorial Church in the centre of Ieper. Built in 1928 out of the ruins of Ieper after the First World War, the church had a tower with no bells until a new ring of eight was finally installed in 2017 in time for the centenary of the Armistice. All that remained was to find and train ringers for them.
