To many Martin was The Bee Man. He learned everything he could about bees, taught children about them, helped bees thrive and passed on his knowledge and appreciation of the importance of protecting and working with bees to as many people as possible. Bees Abroad is a charity dedicated to relieving poverty through beekeeping. Their work supports locally appropriate beekeeping around the world, enabling participants to generate income to enhance their livelihoods, alleviate poverty and improve their quality of life.

Notes to the above:

Online donation figures include all donations made via this donate page to Bees Abroad and includes any Gift Aid reclaimed on behalf of eligible organisations.

Offline donations include cash, cheques and any other donations paid directly to the fundraising organisation. This offline donation total is updated periodically by the Tribute Guardian in conjunction with the fundraising organisation.

The "total raised" figure shown above therefore reflects all monies raised from all sources, both online and offline. Thank you for your support of this Tribute Fund.
