DLS Society Award

The Dorothy L Sayers Society Young Ringer’s Award 2010 – for a student member of The Ladies’ Guild of Change Ringers.

This year’s award was presented to Felicity Lister – a Daventry ringer. Fliss has received a bursary to attend the Keele Ringing Course at Keele University (July 8 – 10th) and will be a member of the Stedman group with her husband, Dan.

The award was presented by Dame Norma Major, a member of the Society and a former ringer, at Bluntisham Church, near Huntingdon last Saturday. Unfortunately a celebratory quarter peal attempt, by fellow members The Ladies’ Guild came to grief but this did not dampen the enjoyment of the day. A short ceremony was held in the Church followed by a sumptuous tea in the nearby hall.
