The aim of Ruxley and Sidcup beekeepers is to promote and support the craft of keeping bees through education of the general public and of beekeepers, in the SE London and West Kent.
We are the Sidcup branch of the Kent Beekeepers Association – Charity No: 222946 – and run entirely by volunteers. The earliest record we have of the club is from 1904.
The access to both of our apiaries is free of charge and we welcome all, whether our members, or not. We run a popular beginners training course each year. PLEASE NOTE 2026 COURSE IS NOW FULLY BOOKED – SEE COURSES PAGE FOR WAITING LIST DETAILS.
You can try handling our bees in one of our teaching apiaries, and see if you like the experience.
