THE GENTLE BEE: I'VE BEEN BUSY SETTING UP MY BUSINESS WHILE MY BEES HAVE ENJOYED THEIR WINTER REST.

When I graduated from Newcastle University last year, the only thing on my mind were my bees. I'd been thinking about starting my own bee business for about a year. Now I could actually do it.

I've learned so many new skills, setting up a website (thanks to the ease of the Wix website builder), got my business email address sorted, bank account, social media sites etc. And here I am!
