We were formed in 1967 and began as a team of four playing on 15 Handbells.  We now have a five octave set of Malmark Handbells (123 bells and a three octave set of belleplates). We are based in Grantham, Lincolnshire

Under their constitution the aims of the team are:

• To keep alive and further the British Traditional Art of Handbell Tune Ringing.
• To provide opportunities for the general public to see and hear this form of music making.
• To provide educational/hands on experience to young and old, through schools, youth clubs, societies, other activities, when requested to do so.
• To use skills learnt to raise funds for local and national charitable and good cause purposes.
• To hold a weekly practice session.  Such sessions to be open to any member of the public wishing to experience this form of music making, without obligation.

At present there are 12 members.
