About us Our Trustees Anne Rowberry: President I am committed to developing beekeeping and improving bee husbandry; I give lectures and practical demonstrations to other Associations, belonging to Avon myself. I believe strongly in getting young people involved in learning about bees and beekeeping and in encouraging an understanding of these wonderful creatures. Since taking early retirement, after a career in teaching and charity work overseas, I am able to further pursue my interests in bees and in Chelonia.I have been a beekeeper for 12 years and run 20+ hives. During this time I have studied and passed all the modules and passed the practical exams to become a Master Beekeeper. I have also passed the Microscopy certificate. I give lectures, practical demonstrations and have run study groups for Modules. I am an assessor for the Basic, Bee Health, General and Advanced Husbandry exams. I set and mark papers for the modular assessments.I have delivered courses, organised study days, and lectured both Nationally and Internationally.Email hereLink trustee for:Avon; Jersey; Gwent; Somerset; Sussex West, Gloucestershire Manage Cookie Preferences
