The Cambridge University Guild of Change Ringers was formed in 1879 to practise the art of change ringing. Today we are an active student society who organise many ringing and social events throughout the year.
We ring at several churches within Cambridge, and welcome ringers of all abilities. To find out more about the Guild, explore this website, e-mail secretary@cugcr.org.uk, or feel free to join us at one of our practices.

After noticing that none of the resident members ever wear any Guild merchandise, the Assistant Master has decided to rectify this and is ordering Guild hoodies. They come with the Guild crest on the front, and you can choose to add a name/witty comment on the back. There is a choice between light blue and brown, if you want one, email Catriona by Sunday.

The minutes of last year’s AGM are available via the downloads page.

This year, Guild New Year will be hosted by Freddie, who lives somewhere near Shrewsbury. It will run from 29th December to 2nd January, and of course you’re welcome to turn up to as much as you want. It involves a couple of days of ringing at various towers and sampling the local beverages, ringing in the New Year and generally having fun! Let Freddie know, secretary@cugcr.org.uk, if you’re keen.
