BBC Radio 4 Appeal - week beginning 6 March 2011

If you tuned in to BBC Radio 4 on Sunday 6 March 2011, you would have heard our patron Martha Kearney broadcast our national appeal, talking about our hope to raise funds to support our work in the developing world and to raise awareness of sustainable beekeeping and the beneficial impacts it can have on rural livelihoods, maintaining biodiversity and the empowerment of women.

You can listen to the appeal again here.

Other ways to help raise money

• give a talk to your local beekeeping group
• organise an event, raffle or tombola
• sell your stuff or buy from others on eBay for Charity 
• get sponsored to run, cycle, jump out of an aeroplane or just stay silent for the day!
