SUMMARY:Winter Talks Starting January 20th
DESCRIPTION:Kent Beekeepers AssociationBromley Branch\n\n\n\nTalks for the 2026 Season \n\n\n\nMonthly talks from January through till April are still in preparation\, but those finalised at present are shown below:- \n\n\n\nTuesday January 20th\n\n\n\nLottie Simpson – Skep Making and Art \n\n\n\nLottie has recently finished a fine arts degree. As she prepared for her final show Lottie made use of her interest in beekeeping. She incorporated her designs into skeps\, which she taught herself to make. Back home\, which happens to be Sydenham\, she approached her local beekeeping group.  Who knows where this might lead? \n\n\n\nLottie will demonstrate skep making\, and illustrate how she has incorporated her designs into skeps with masks. If we give her sufficient encouragement\, she may even agree to set up a skep making workshop in the future. \n\n\n\nTuesday March 17th\n\n\n\nAnnie McGeogh – Beekeeping as a Community Activity in South London \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n Annie is involved in beekeeping at a number of sites around South London. This includes a community group in Dulwich and the bees at Battersea Park Children’s Zoo. During the course of my beekeeping development I have come to realise the value of looking over my shoulder at how other people conduct their beekeeping. As a branch we largely operate as individual beekeepers.  Annie will expand on the value of working with and for groups and organisations. \n\n\n\nAll talks are held in the main pavilion at Kent House Road Allotments\, 91A\, Kent House Road\,  SE21 5LJ\, starting at 7.30 pm. Parking is usually available in Kent House Road\, and in Woodbastwick road\, just opposite the entrance to the allotments. \n\n\n\nTea and cake will be available at the end of the talk. \n\n\n\nNews of the remaining talks will follow in due course. \n\n\n\nBob Jackman
