Save the Honeybees
The recent high publicity surrounding honeybees worldwide is not without cause. Recent losses particularly in America are unprecedented. A range of parasites and disease have largely erradicated the feral honeybee from the UK. More importantly than ever the importance of the honeybee not just for the production of honey but also the pollination industry is being felt.
By supporting your local beekeeping club you can do your part to promote responsible beekeeping in this country.
We Offer 
If you don't have room at home to keep bees we can offer a site at our Loughry Campus (places limited). A full range of facilities are available to members with membership costing only £15 per year (including insurance).
We have a new show tent available for local shows, please use the 'contact us' form to enquire
