​Your Association

Huddersfield & District Beekeeping Association works to
  • Support and promote the craft of bee keeping in the local area
  • Raise awareness of the importance of bees in our environment

HDBKA is a local area association of the national charity the British Bee Keeping Association. We have around 100 members from many different backgrounds and of all ages. We are predominantly hobby bee keepers, always keen to share knowledge and learn from one another. New members are always welcome!
