The Archbishops of Canterbury and York and the Prime Minister, Theresa May are encouraging all cathedrals and churches across England to toll a bell for 7 minutes at 7pm this Thursday, 18th April as a mark of solidarity following the fire. This has been suggested by the British Ambassador to France, Edward Llewellyn.
Therefore a bell will be rung at St. Petrocks at this time.
