The British and Irish Meteorite Society (BIMS) is a group of over 150 meteorite researchers and amateurs. The BIMS was formed in 2004 by the meteorite collectors Mark Ford and Dave Harris. The group provides a meteorite collecting and study focus for the UK and Ireland, and is the only meteorite group in the UK and one of only three in the entire world. Members have made many major scientific discoveries, including the finding of a rare 17.6 kilograms (39 lb) pallasite meteorite, in Hambleton, Yorkshire, in 2005. Several members assisted in the search for the Winchcombe meteorite in 2021. Through its website, the society maintains two forums, one for the general public and one for its members. Additionally, the society has a Facebook group. The forums and group act as a central point for the exchange of meteorite related information in the UK.
