We are very sad to announce the passing of our beekeeping colleague and friend Gareth Issac, from Fishguard.

Gareth had been a PBKA member for a number of years, was very popular and always willing to help anyone out.

Our sincere condolences go out to his family and friends. If we hear anything about funeral arrangements, we will of course advise further.

Gareth will be greatly missed by us all!

Reminder – PBKA Membership Renewal 2024

apiarymanager PBKA, PBKA Membership

Just a reminder that membership renewals are now overdue.

Please ensure that you renew promptly on our online system (see link below), in order to ensure continuity of your membership and BDI insurance.

We are also accepting applications for new PBKA Members and PBKA Supporters for 2024.

Please note that there are changes to PBKA membership arrangements  for 2024, due to changes in the policy conditions of the Liability insurance cover with the WBKA.

  • PBKA membership, (including insurance cover), will now be for one person only (not families) at the normal membership rate (subject to the number of hives for BDI).
  • Partners must now join separately under the new ‘Partner’ category (see link below), which now costs £6.00 per calendar year, to ensure liability cover is in place.
  • Note that there is no block family insurance cover available.

For further details and to join/renew as a full Member or Partner, please follow this link.

We are doing our best to try and make this change as seamless as possible, but please bear with us during this transition phase.

If you have any queries, please email pbkaapiarymanager@live.co.uk
