Welcome to the web site of Swindon
Branch of the Wiltshire Beekeepers Association (Wiltshire
BKA).
Objectives of the association
include supporting its members to improve their craft and
to promote better understanding of honeybees and beekeeping
to the general public.
Our members are beekeepers in
and around the Swindon area, varying from too many years
to count to 'just started'. So if you are interested in
starting to keep bees, or just plain curious why not get
in touch to find out more.
Novice and other beekeepers
are encouraged to prepare for and take the non-written exam
for the certificate in basic beekeeping. Help is given in
preparing for the exam by means of winter study group sessions
and practical experience in the apiary.
We meet once a month during
the Winter and occasionally during the Summer at our Branch
Apiary in Swindon.
If you'd like to find out more
then email Dennis
Simpson (Chairman) or give him a ring on 01793 854063.
If you'd like to recieve our regular newsletter by email
then please contact Kathy
Hobson (Secretary)
