I serve on the Board of Bees Abroad, a UK-based social impact organisation that operates across multiple countries in West and East Africa. https://www.beesabroad.org/Supported by global donor and social impact funding, Bees Abroad provides essential beekeeping equipment and strengthens local business capacity through skills development, enabling the growth of sustainable enterprises centred on beekeeping and bee-related products. Through these efforts, we aim to drive environmentally sustainable economic development that generates widespread impact within and across rural African communities—raising wages and financial security, improving housing and health standards, expanding educational opportunities, and empowering both women and men. This integrated approach to social impact not only strengthens local enterprises but boosts overall community well-being and resilience.
