Bee Urban

About Bee Urban is a social enterprise that aims to work with communities to improve the environment for the benefit of us all. We focus on responsible urban beekeeping, horticulture and community growing. It’s not just about bees, people are vital to Bee Urban. Community engagement and volunteering is important to us, providing opportunities to contribute to the locality, be creative and reduce social isolation. We are here to work with everyone, whatever your age, level of experience or need. We are skilled in working with vulnerable adults, including those with mental health needs and learning difficulties. Everyone is welcome.
