We were pleased to see your article last week outlining initiatives by Oxfordshire councillors to promote beekeeping in our area.
I would like to draw readers’ attention to the fact that we have a thriving Beekeeping Association based in and around Wantage, and we run training and mentoring courses for beginners and novices, and open evenings at our Association Apiary for anyone who is interested in finding out more about beekeeping.
For details of our upcoming winter courses, we would invite anyone who is interested to contact Mrs Lilian Valentine via email at jvalentine515@btinternet.com Jane Greenhalgh Secretary, Vale and Downland Beekeepers Association
