We can assist you by providing a full range of ecological and wildlife services from scoping and protected species surveys through to impact assessment, mitigation design, implementation, and monitoring. We can help make your journey through planning as painless as possible.
All specialist ecological areas are covered including bats, birds, great crested newts, dormouse, reptiles, water voles, badgers and invertebrates.
