Our local bee keepers used to loan us an observation bee hive unit, and in spring would bring the hive to us with a colony of bees. The observation hive was placed in the education room, and a tube allowed the bees fly in and out of the centre to collect food. Sadly 2 years ago the hive that was loaned to the centre was destroyed by fire so although our local Bee keepers are happy to supply us with a colony of bees they need a home. So sponsor a Bee today.</span></p> </span></span></span></span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: &amp;amp;amp;quot;"><span style="font-size: 14pt; font-family: &amp;amp;amp;quot;">&nbsp;</span></span></span></span></p> <p class="MsoPlainText" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure.
