The Bell Tower in the Community
Light Up for a Cause
The Bell Tower Illuminates More Than the Night Sky
As part of our dedication to our local community, The Bell Tower is proud to be able to partner with local community groups, charities, and not-for-profit organisations. Our Community Tower Project focuses on supporting these groups with fundraising donations, “lighting up” for significant events and awareness campaigns, and promoting their causes to our ever-growing social media following.

September 21, 2026(1 event) September 21, 2026 2026 will be the 11th year that Global ITP Awareness Week has been launched internationally.
