PEOPLE will have the chance to learn how to look after bees at a course to be run by the Kennet Beekeepers Association on June 17 and 18.

It will be held at Wiltshire Bee centre at Yatesbury near Calne under the guidance of Fee and Terry Cooke. It will be a chance for people to find out if the hobby is for them and what equipment and skills are needed to do it successfully.

The 12 hour course will be run over the weekend with mornings in the classroom and afternoon apiary sessions. Go to www.kennet-beekeepers.co.uk or contact Dick Church: 01380 828597 or email church175@btinternet.com
