Russell Brown

Russell was taught to ring at Hatfield in 1969 following a spell in the church choir. Most of his formative ringing experience was gained in St Albans mainly at St Peters and the Cathedral. He was elected to the Cumberland's in 1975.

Since then he has rung over 800 peals including over 350 for the Society. Russell lives in Bedfordshire and rings at Clifton. For him ringing is all about quality - good striking is paramount.

Away from the tower his other interests include: Classic cars and Real Ale !!

Russell works for the Church Commissioners as a Senior Analyst Programmer.

What does the Junior Steward do?

The Junior Steward is also involved at London practices as the person who collects steepleage. They deputise for the Senior Steward or Master as required and are the person who meets & greets visitors (although of course other people do this too!). The Junior Steward often gets involved with organising regular Society events - booking peal towers, evening venues or helping with organising peal bands. Much of the role involves assisting the Treasurer in collecting and recording peals and monies.
