WHAT OUR MEMBERS SAY

As a new beekeeper Doncaster BKA has been an invaluable source of information and support. They are friendly and enthusiastic and even during the national restrictions have helped out when needed – the zoom calls have been really useful and I can’t wait to actually meet everyone in person. I would recommend joining to anyone who wants to learn more about beekeeping.
