If you have some experience: If you have a hive and bees or some previous beekeeping experience then we will pleased to see you during the active beekeeping season on Friday evening’s between 6.30 and 9.00 (March to September except Good Friday) when you will be able to further your experience and knowledge, working in small groups, taking care of the Association's bees.

If you are a beginner: If you have no previous hands-on experience in beekeeping we will again be offering a practical course at Twickenham (start date to be advised). However places are limited and preference will be given to those who attended the 10-week theory course at the end of last year.
