Grants for church bells and bell ringing

The Central Council of Church Bell Ringers Bell Restoration Fund income is generated primarily from legacies, donations, fundraising offers and bank interest.

When funds are available, applications for grants are invited by notices in The Ringing World, on the CCCBR website, and on other communications channels.  Available money is allocated in accordance with the Criteria defined by the Central Council.

The Council also maintains a separate grant scheme to support bell ringing (the Fred E Dukes International Bell Fund).

and provides a signpost to another grant scheme, the Keltek Trust, which helps churches acquire surplus and/or redundant bells to be hung for English-style full-circle bell-ringing.
