To celebrate HM Queen Elizabeth II's Platinum Jubilee, the St Mary Redcliffe Guild of Ringers will be attempting to ring a peal on Friday 3rd June starting just after 10am.

The date and time for the peal - which is expected to last around four hours - has been chosen to coincide with the Service of Thanksgiving being held at London's St Paul’s Cathedral.

A peal is where over 5,000 unique combinations of all twelve bells are rung non-stop. It's the marathon of bell ringing and requires huge concentration by each of the twelve ringers to make the bells sound as even and rhythmical as possible.
