Sophie is our part-time in-house rope maker, responsible for repairing existing bell ropes, making new ropes, and managing the daily operations of the rope-walk side of the business. She first learned to ring in Bath, where she and Matthew rang together as teenagers. After taking a break from ringing to raise her family, Sophie returned to it a few years ago. With a background in the baking and retail industries, she also enjoys crochet and quilting in her spare time.
