Vaughan Evans Fund for Young Ringers
 
This fund was set up in memory of Vaughan Evans who died in 2007.  Vaughan had been a devoted supporter of HRGB serving in all three of the Officers’ posts as well as leading one of the country’s large teams of handbell ringers, St Wulfram’s, in Grantham. He always supported young ringers and financial grants are available through this fund.  
 
Who can apply?
Funding may be given to handbell ringers from the UK in full/ part-time education, and aged under 24, to attend an HRGB event. Applicants should be members of HRGB. Membership of HRGB is free of charge for those in full-time education aged under 24.
