MEETINGS

We are an informal group and meet regularly to talk about matters to do with bees in a friendly and relaxed environment.  We invite interesting and thought-provoking speakers occasionally but our focus is on creating a sociable and friendly atmosphere when members can discuss beekeeping problems and seek solutions.  All are very welcome.  All winter meetings take place at the Oak Leaf Recreation Centre. Regular Apiary sessions take place every Monday evening from 6pm at St. Oswalds Allotments during the period April to September.
