About the Bere Local History Group

The Bere Local History Group (BLHG) has been in business for many years, although our activities had to be suspended for most of 2020 and 2021. We restarted the group in 2022, with a new committee to take it forward. We put on a programme of events that we hope will celebrate the rich and varied history and heritage of the Bere Peninsula.

Committee members

We do not want to be exclusive. Many other people have great local history interest and knowledge – you are welcome to join in our activities!

We would like to acknowledge and thank those who have run the BLHG in the past, including: Jean Sharman, Trevor Bond, Betty Endean, Jill Edwards, Glyn Berrington, John Snell and Andy Spry.
