The Scottish Beekeepers Association (SBA) 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.

Within this site you will find information about the association and its work. We hope that you find the site useful and helpful, whether you are an SBA member, a beekeeper from another country, or someone with just an interest in bees and beekeeping.

If you have comments about the site, please direct these in the first instance to the Web Master, via the Contact page.
