    I am looking for a beekeeper living in Leicester, who is perhaps looking to have one or two extra hives.

    A friend, who actually lives in Enderby, is offering space in a large private garden for a couple of hives.

    The beekeeper would ideally live nearby.

    Anybody interested, please send me a message, or email to williebee1 @ yahoo.co.uk (remove the spaces)

    Thank you

    Willie Bee

    I can put you in touch with several beekeepers who live in that area, or pass your message on.

    Many thanks !

    I actually sent them an email yesterday and got a nice email by return today from Karen. She will pass on my request to members.

    I posted here too, just to cover all options.

    Regards !

      I have heard from my friend who is active in the local bee-keeping association and lives in locally to Enderby - he is happy to let you have his email to give you advice, I will PM it.
