The Durham University Society of Change Ringers was founded in 1959 and originally existed alongside the Durham College Society until they merged in the 1960s.

The Society practices on Wednesday nights at St. Brandon’s Church, Brancepeth, from 19:30 to 21:00, and rings there for Sunday service each week during term time. We also regularly ring at other towers in Durham and the surrounding area. We welcome ringers of all standards, including complete beginners, who we are happy to teach. We organise transport to Brancepeth from Durham – to attend a practice please contact Alec ([email protected]).

The Society goes on termly tours, holds regular socials, and can often be found in the pub after (and/or before) ringing. We also host the annual DUSCR dinner where past and present members of the society get together for a tour and black-tie dinner.
