What we do...

We provide both accurate and reliable ecological surveys coupled with sound advice on legislation. We undertake any size or type of project and ensure that each development proceeds within the letter of the law, to an appropriate time frame and within a set budget.

We are experienced in discussing projects with key statutory consultants including Natural England, the Environmental Agency and planning authorities and our work involvement ranges from residential and industrial development to woodland grant and agricultural stewardship schemes. We also have international experience across four continents in both development and conservation roles.

Each project can be managed from conception to completion, from Phase 1 surveys to the implementation of mitigation and clearing planning conditions

...and why we do it

We believe in creating value for our customers, we offer an honest and dedicated service that is always built around our clients best interests while also making a real effort to ‘do right’ by wildlife and the natural environment. Our clients value us as problem solvers rather than problem creators and by our very nature as a co-operation we believe in and work towards a common goal in everything we do. Every member of our team equally supports both the development and the conservation side of all our projects.
