A
Module 2F refresher course for all ringing teachers. It's suitable for

The place to explore the world of virtual ringing and the many different activities that hook fellow bell ringers into this addictive hobby.
The challenges cover simulator software, online ringing, handbells and the enigmatically named tail ends. When you’ve ticked off a challenge yourself, you can share your experience on the 50 Things Facebook group.
The scheme is targeted at those who are new to ringing in the virtual world, however, just like the original 50 Ringing Things, there will probably be competitions between experienced virtual ringers to see who will be the first to get their Gold certificate.
For you collectors out there (and there are one or two in bell ringing!) you will receive your 50 Ringing Things certificates when you’ve ticked off the right number of challenges. Remember, only challenges completed after registering on the scheme count!
