Is there  anybody on the list who can give me the number of beekeepers in 
the UK  ?

Not accurately. There are about 10,000 members of the British BKA, which is  
almost exclusively English. It is reckoned that only about a third of 
beekeepers  are members.  You may get further information from the Ulster, Welsh and  
Scottish BKAs.
