Devon Association of Call-Change Ringers | This Association is for ringers who ring called changes to a very high standard who live in Devon. The Devon Association of Ringers was founded in 1925 by Rev AF McCarthy as, according to certificates awarded at the time, "The Devon Association for the Encouragement of Round Ringing", although this was soon changed to "The Devon Association for the Encouragement of Call Change Ringing". As the name suggests the Association promotes 'call change' rather than 'change ringing' which falls to the Guild of Devonshire Ringers. The Association adopted its badge and motto, 'We Serve', in 1936 and it appears that it was at this time that the name of the Association was shortened to what it is today. | 1924 | 1935 | https://www.devonbells.co.uk/ |
