AUS/NZ Instagram Account
An Instagram page, titled 'AUS/NZ Bellringing' has been created to educate and promote bellringing to the general public. This public account will be focusing on introducing the wider Australian and New Zealand communities to the art/science of bellringing.
As bellringers, we are already aware of how fabulous and exciting bellringing is. This account will assist in showcasing this wonderful hobby to others! Everyone is encouraged to 'follow' this account, and if you have any images or short clips that a non-ringer might find interesting send them to instagram@anzab.org.au.
Images/clips will be chosen for appeal to the general public. Please make sure any you send through have the permission of anyone featured.
Thank you in advance,
