Arran Bee Group is an informal group of amateur beekeepers based on the Isle of Arran. We meet regularly to share knowledge about the science and craft of this ancient pastime and welcome new members keen to learn the first steps in keeping bees. The membership of the group is growing and we now need a mechanised way of extracting honey that can be shared across the membership to increase the supply of honey to island residents.

We have just opened Arran's only secure dog field which is free to use, and bookable online for hourly use. Our aim is to make it more inclusive by adding accessible paths which will facilitate movement around the field for those with impaired mobility.

Following the reduction in Streetscene's budget, there are a number of maintenance issues that need to be addressed by the community. This application will give us a budget to arrange these works in conjunction with other local groups.
