Several members of the committee are standing down this January so this is your chance to get involved and make a difference. Some committee members are officials with regular responsibilities but other just take things on as and when situations arise and they feel they can make a contribution.
The committee is friendly and welcoming and meets just four times a year so it is not an onerous thing to do. We are looking for people with a little time and energy, not necessarily people who have been keeping bees for a long time.
We are also looking for people with a few years experience who would be willing to mentor new beekeepers for their first season. You will remember it can be a very perplexing time because as David always says - 'Bees don't read the books'.
