The Shipton Gorge band continues to demonstrate its commitment to ringing with the award of First Quarter Peal Certificates to four more of its members: Jo Warren, Marina Hamilton, Carolyn Hall, and Elizabeth Ferguson. Their certificates were awarded at the recent Branch Practice which was being held at their home tower. 

Three of the quarters took place in February(Marina, Carolyn, Elizabeth) and Jo’s in April. 

They join fellow ringer Steve Forrest who rang his first quarter in November last year and was awarded his certificate at a previous occasion.
