Make a beeline for Compton Chamerlayne village hall, where Brigit Strawbridge Howard will enlighten you on the world of bees
Compton Events is a new venture in Compton Chamberlayne, Wiltshire. “We are very keen to keep our village hall running,” one of the organisers told the NBVM. “We got our heads together to come up with a way to raise funds. Surrounded by so many interesting people, we thought we could invite them to do talks.”
The first talk, on Thursday 8 September at 7pm is ‘The Hidden World of Garden Bees’ by Brigit Strawbridge Howard.
Come and hear Brigit talk about the honeybees, bumblebees, and solitary bees, and what we can do to help them. Brigit will share fascinating details of the lives of flora and fauna that have filled her days with ever-increasing wonder and delight.
The talk will last for one hour with questions afterwards. A glass of wine and nibbles will be available from 6.30pm. Tickets cost £15, and are available from sarawillan@gmail.com (07919 566968) or harriet.combes@gmail.com (01722 716123).
