Area: Isle of Man

'The Federation is affiliated to the BBKA and is comprised of three local area associations: * Southern District Beekeepers Association; * Western Beekeepers Association; * Ramsey and District Beekeepers Association. There are over 80 registered beekeepers on the island which is blessed with a mild if breezy climate and varied terrain. Each of the clubs hold several meetings through the year sometimes at members’ apiaries.'

'Formed in January 1979 with the aim of encouraging the study of genealogy and family history, particularly within the Isle of Man. Being a member of the society benefits all those researching their families, whether they are Manx or not. The organisation is run by volunteers. Meetings are held monthly, mostly on the third Friday and start at 7.30pm ... We invite speakers to entertain us with talks on historical or Manx topics.'
