What we do

We want to create a world where honey bees and other pollinators can thrive

Here at the Bee Friendly Trust, we’re passionate about honey bees. It’s perhaps not surprising, given the fact that many of the team are beekeepers.

The Bee Friendly Trust is serious about creating habitats that will last. Which means empowering individuals and communities and inspiring the next generation to nurture and sustain our projects for the future.

From delivering fun, educational workshops from our exciting mobile learning space to raise awareness about the importance of the honey bee through to getting our hands dirty planting pollinator friendly plants around the UK there is lots going on at the BFT, find out what we do…

Community & railway projects

We work with community groups and station staff to establish interconnected flowering habitats across urban centres and beyond. Think of it as a nationwide pollinator corridor of planters filled with bee-friendly flowers, micro wildlife gardens, orchards and more.

Education

We deliver fun educational workshops from our exciting mobile learning space, give informative talks suitable for all ages, and offer creative resources to raise awareness about the importance of the honey bee.

Partnering with Organisations

We have worked alongside Transport for London, local Community Rail Partnerships, Friends of Stoneham Park, and Thames Ditton in Bloom to brighten up railway station platforms, create wildlife gardens, and introduce the next generation to bees in urban parks.

Friends of the Bee Friendly Trust
