Membership

East Lancashire Beekeeping Association membership includes regular emails with branch news and information, membership of the British Beekeepers Association (BBKA). Members receive public and product liability insurance and bee disease insurance (BDI) for up to three hives. You will also receive the monthly magazine of the BBKA and invitations to the shows and conventions of other beekeeping clubs in the region. 

Further benefits of East Lancashire club membership are access to the association library, loan of the branch’s equipment (including honey and wax extractors), regular apiary sessions and club meetings. As a member you will receive the support and knowledge of the branch as you develop your beekeeping skills.

East Lancashire Beekeepers Association welcomes new members and regularly runs training courses for beginners and improving beekeepers.

Our membership year runs from October to October, the typical start and end of the beekeeping season.
