Welcome to the Scottish Beekeepers Association

The Scottish Beekeepers Association is the national body that represents Scotland's beekeepers within the UK, throughout Europe and globally. It is a registered charity, and is run entirely by volunteers drawn from its membership.

European and American Foulbrood Outbreak in Scotland

Our Diseases section is given over largely to updates on the outbreak that began in 2009. Please go to the diseases page for details and up-to-the-minute guidance and updates from the Diseases Convener.

A request to Webmasters and web users.

It is understandable that all beekeepers will want access to the most accurate and up-to-date information available. Webmasters of other Scottish beekeeping sites, and those operating emailing lists, are asked to link directly to the pages and download documents in the SBA and other source web sites, rather than copying or attaching these documents into their own web site or emails for direct 'local' download. Documents can and do change, sometimes at short notice. It is important that everyone is accessing the most up-to-date information. Please also be aware that some download files in the SBA web site include copyright information, and that the permission to reproduce this on the SBA web site is specific to the SBA. Thank you.
