Dear Peter,
I am the Secretary of the Stroud (Gloucestershire) Beekeepers Association.
Our subscription is £25.00 p.a.
For that members get:
1. Third party insurance. (up to £2,000,000)
2. We hold monthly meetings at which we have guest speakers talking on
beekeeping
related topics.
3. We have a book library of over 60 books which members can borrow free of
charge.
4. We have four videos which members can borrow free of charge.
5. We hold about two apiary meetings a year (at members apiaries)
6. We are about to start a branch apiary for educational and queen rearing
purposes.
7. A Quaterly package containing: The Bee Keepers Quaterly, Information
from the BBKA and
GBKA.
Of the £25.00 subscription, the branch only keeps £2.00 and has to pass the
£23.00 on to the Gloucestershire Beekeepers Association. However, we can
claim some money back (up to £60.00 p.a.
to pay for Guest Speakers). With only £2.00 per member per year comming into
branch funds we
can barely cover the costs of paying for the hall were we hold our monthly
meetings. Consequently,
we are thinking about raising our subscription to £30.00 p.a.
I would be interested in receiving any similar information yo might receive
from other associations
kind regards
Jon Kemp
We are thinking of raising the subscriptions to £30 as the current reve
