Over 60 Years of Beekeeping on the Wirral.

The Wirral Branch was formed in 1961 and is one of 5 branches which makes up the Cheshire Beekeepers' Association (CBKA). We hope you find our website helpful - whether you’re a member, considering beekeeping for the first time, or having trouble with bees and looking for help. We intend to keep you informed about what Beekeepers are doing on the Wirral & will offer advice & guidance throughout the year. Keep checking the site for regular updates.

Wirral Swarm Season April - August 2024

If you think you have a swarm, find out if they are honey bees and if we can help here.

Asian Hornet Monitoring

Find out important BBKA information about Asian hornets here. It gives information about identifying Asian hornet, the App, and  asks all members to put a trap out and monitor and report.

The aims of the Cheshire Beekeepers’ Association Wirral Branch are to promote and further the craft of bee keeping on Wirral. We do this through meetings, apiary events and educational courses.”
