Hi, how can we help?

Join the SBA

By joining us you will become part of a community of over 1500 beekeepers in Scotland.

an apairy in the countryside

Your membership will bring you:

  • Subscription to monthly magazine – The Scottish Beekeeper.
  • Insurance cover and compensation cover for up to 5 bee colonies (not applicable for Institutional membership).
  • Representation in meetings with government.
  • Opportunities to learn through our workshops and examination system.
  • SBA meetings, annual convention and social media networking.
  • Access to the extensive Moir Library.

Membership can now be purchased using the links on this page or by post using one of the forms in the download section below.

If you are taxpayer please consider completing a Gift Aid Declaration.

Membership runs from 1st January – 31st December regardless of join date. It may therefore be beneficial to wait, if it’s later in the year and you do not require immediate insurance cover, and join in January to get the full year’s benefits.

Compensation Scheme cover comes into effect 40 days after your payment is accepted.
