The inaugural meeting of the Cambridge and Isle of Ely Beekeepers Association was held on November the 28th 1881 in St John’s College.  The Cambridgeshire Beekeepers' Association is a charity.  Part of it's charitable aims are to provide training and education for beekeepers and people interested in bees and beekeeping.  To this end, most of our events are free to access.  We encourage people who are able, to become members or associate members of our organisation to support our aims.

Where we charge a fee for events, the fee is designed to cover costs only.  We are not able to offer refunds if the refund is requested less than six weeks before the event.
