Moray Beekeepers Association

Hi Guys, In Moray we have started an Association Apiary and we plan to hold courses/training events this season. Although we have always had a busy summer programme we have never thought about insurance until now. Other Associations run courses and the like but have any obtained insurance in case of injury to visitors, members or volunteers? Any advice would be welcome.

Last year I ran a bee event at a local estate and obtained from Charlie Irwin a copy of the insurance scheme run by the SBA. I think that it covers local association meetings too, but I'll look it out later and let you know.

Hey thanks Gavin, that would be great!

Can't find it, of course, but the SBA does have Public and Product Liability Insurance with Royal Sun Alliance which I'm pretty sure covers meetings run by SBA members. I'll PM you contact details.
