Welcome.
The Twickenham and Thames Valley Bee-keepers' Association is a U.K. Registered Charity (Reg.No. 2964439) whose aim is to educate the general public in bee-keeping.
Twickenham and Thames Valley Bee-keepers hold free classes for individuals, offer opportunities for group visits and welcome the general public to our annual Honey Show and Open Day events.
These pages are principally intended to serve as an introduction to the Association and it is hoped they may encourage you to make contact with us to learn more about bees and bee-keeping.

If you would like to help bees in the environment but do not want to become a beekeeper yourself, the British Beekeeping Association and the Saga Group have started an 'Adopt a Beehive' scheme. More information can be found here.

SWARMS: If you find a swarm or a bees nest or have a problem in the local area, please read the advice here: British Beekeeping Association swarm advice pages before taking any other action.

For further help, contact Graham Copland-Cale on 07941 740 113 or
e-mail 2010 swarm co-ordinator --please put "SWARM" on the subject line.


SCHOOLS AND OTHER GROUPS: If you would like to plan an educational visit, download information and useful links here.
