Honey Bee Health Day in Wilts

Wiltshire BKA is sponsoring a Honey Bee Health Day on Saturday, September 1, which members of Somerset BKA are very welcome to attend, writes Richard Oliver,
Chairman and Education Officer Wiltshire BKA.

The venue is Bromham Social Centre, New Road, Bromham, near Chippenham, Wiltshire SN15 2 JB, which has ample parking. The provisional programme includes talks by Nigel Semmence, the NBU's lead on non-native species, on Asian Hornet and Small Hive Beetle plus an opportunity to observe frames with AFB and EFB. Details will be posted on the Wiltshire BKA website shortly.

There will be no entrance fee but it would be helpful nearer the time if we can advise WBKA how many of us they might expect. Please email:  [email protected]

Those attending should bring a packed lunch. Tea, coffee and squash will be available for a small charge. Attached to the Centre is The Owl should anyone require something more substantial though only 45 minutes has been set aside for lunch.
