Ring in the festive season with sparkling tunes, old and new, courtesy of a top team of handbell ringers.

The Wandle Ringers will be in town to entertain audiences with songs played on their Whitechapel handbells - from arrangements of classic and pop music to original compositions.

The 20-strong group, which is celebrating its 25th birthday this year, started life as an evening class, the South Norwood Belles, using a small 12-set of American handbells.  

Over the years it has grown and performed on television with the likes of Jools Holland and at the Houses of Parliament, as well at a whole host of venues across the South East and London.

The concert will be held in aid of the mayor of Epsom’s charities - The Sunnybank Trust, MERU and Epsom Phab.
