Full membership of Oxfordshire Beekeepers' Association costs just £20 per year, which includes:

*Monthly newsletter

*Monthly practical meetings and/or lectures

*Access to OBKA's facilities, including equipment for hire and extensive library

*Disease insurance for up to three hives

The fee also includes membership of the British Beekeepers' Association, providing extra insurance benefits and regular copies of BBKA News.

 For an additional £22 you can receive the monthly Bee Craft magazine, Britain's best-selling beekeeping journal, which won four Gold Medals at  the 2007 international Apimondia.

Partner membership is available to additional members of the same household, living at the same address as the full member. This includes BBKA insurance but not BDI, and a shared copy of OBKA News. 

Associate membership, including all the normal rights of non-Bee Craft members, is only open to those who already belong to another BBKA-affiliated Association, which pays the BBKA capitation fee for them and also the BDI insurance.
