Story

I'm taking part in Verse Aid, an awareness-raising, fundraising, spirit-raising poetry event in collaboration with The Society of Authors on Saturday 8th February 2020. If you're in London, please drop by. If you're not, then please consider sponsoring me all the same. We're raising money for Bees for the Planet and also for Earthwatch - both excellent charities, you decide where you'd like your sponsorship to go (I have two pages) 

This one's all about the bees. 

Bees ensure the maintenance of biodiversity and enable people to improve their livelihoods. Bees for Development ensure beekeepers working in poor countries have access to the information and advice they need. For example, how to market honey, manage indigenous bees sustainably, or plant trees useful for bees. BzzzzZZZZ
