We are pleased to be able to share with you some pictures kindly provided by Rob Greenaway the apiary manager of the Jinney Ring further to a recent visit by the West Midlands branch of the Royal Society of Biology.

The bees and new equipment are all looking very healthy...










The Annual General Meeting announces your new committee. Honey Tophies are awarded & we celebrate our home grown Master Beekeeper.

The Annual General Meeting took place on Wednesday 21st November and the new committee has been agreed comprising:

Chairman      Alan Woollhead
Treasurer       Bob Powell
Secretary       Ed Payne
Education      Chris Tomlin

and with the following committee members:

Dave Lantsbery
Tim Vivian
Rob Greenaway

Martyn Cracknell, the President of the Worcestershire Beekeeping Association presented Honey Show trophies to Alan Woollhead and Bob Powell for their award winning honey entries consisting of liquid and soft set honey and blocks of wax and mead and Alan Woollhead was congratulated and awarded his Master Beekeeping Certificate.

We believe Alan Woollhead is the first home grown Master Beekeeper from the North East Worcestershire branch of the Worcestershire Association so this is particularly special.

Thanks were given to Kate Chase in her role as Chair over the previous twelve months and to Ann Winspear for her sterling work as Secretary over the last four years.
