Fresh Biological Association

The Freshwater Biological Association promotes freshwater science through innovative research, specialist scientific facilities, a programme of scientific meetings, production of publications, and provision of sound independent scientific opinion. The FBA has two scientific centres: one on the shore of Lake Windermere, Cumbria; the other alongside the River Frome at East Stoke, Dorset.

What is Insect Week?

Insect Week encourages people of all ages to learn more about insects.

Every two years, the Royal Entomological Society organises the week, supported by a large number of partner organisations with interests in the science, natural history and conservation of insects.
