Important Links

 

    

BeeBase - https://secure.fera.defra.gov.uk/beebase/
BeeBase is the official online presence of the National Bee Unit (NBU). It is designed for beekeepers, and is part of The Food and Environment Research Agency (FERA).
We would recommend that ALL beekeepers register their details with BeeBase, so that you are known to your regional Bee Inspectors, and so that you can be informed if there are colonies nearby which are infected with notifiable diseases.
