Bee Good at home
O

ne of the Island’s leading
house builders has joined
forces with British skincare
company Bee Good to highlight its
support of, and the importance of
bees.
Both David Wilson Homes and Bee
Good are active supporters of British
bees and will be working together to
encourage more people to become
bee-friendly and promote the next
generation of beekeepers.
David Wilson Homes already
ensures all of its gardens and open
spaces are planted with bee-friendly
flowers, trees and bushes and now
skincare products from Bee Good
will be featured in show homes at
Victoria Walk in East Cowes.
Bee Good produces a range of
award-winning natural skincare
products using the precious byproducts of Britain's beehives; British
wildflower honey, propolis and
beeswax. Launched in April 2014,

Bee Good's products are now stocked
in 97 Waitrose stores and available
online at www.beegood.co.uk and
www.urbanoutfitters.com
David Wilson Homes sales director
Michelle Storer said: “People are
starting to realise the importance
of bees and we’re seeing growing
support for a wide range of
initiatives to help them thrive.’’
Bee Good founder Simon Cavill has
been a beekeeper for more than 10
years and as an active member of the
British Beekeepers Association. He
said: ”All types of bees in the UK have
been in steep decline for many years.
By supporting British bees through
the work Bee Good does and through
initiatives such as this one with David
Wilson Homes, we are ultimately
supporting the UK environment
as well as ensuring that our food
supply of native fruits and vegetables
remains intact.”
