Between 1980 and 2016, apart from an upward blip around the millennium, change ringing on handbells in East Yorkshire was at a low ebb.
The Hull Handbells Project started in 2016 and the results started to show in the statistics in 2017.
In 2018 a new record was set for the number of handbell quarter peals rung for the B&D. This new record was exceeded in 2019, and again in 2021.
