BNG Consultancy That works for you

Working with Eco-logical Landscapes makes biodiversity net gain requirements feel less like a hurdle and more like an opportunity to add value to your scheme. By providing off-site BNG units backed by ecological expertise, it helps housing developers across the South of England meet policy, protect programmes and unlock land value.

Deep roots in the South of England

Successfully delivering BNG is not just about numbers on a metric; it is about understanding local plans, policy nuances and the expectations of individual planning authorities. Eco-logical Landscapes is built around detailed knowledge of planning and ecology across the South of England, from coastal landscapes to lowland farmland and river catchments. That regional insight means unit strategies are aligned with Local Nature Recovery Strategies and local authority guidance from the outset, reducing the risk of objections or costly redesigns late in the process.

A passionate, disciplined team

Behind the habitat banks sits a team that is both passionate about nature and disciplined about delivery. Ecologists, land managers and project leads work to clear processes, from baseline surveys and habitat design through to long-term management and monitoring. This combination of enthusiasm and rigour gives developers confidence that their projects are always getting the attention they need and that the promised biodiversity uplift will actually be delivered on the ground and maintained over the full 30-year commitment.

A network of habitat banks

Eco-logical Landscapes manages a growing range of habitat banks, strategically located to deliver meaningful, landscape-scale gains rather than isolated green pockets. These sites cover a variety of habitats—such as species-rich grassland, woodland and wetland—allowing developers to purchase off-site units that closely match the type and distinctiveness required by the biodiversity metric. With multiple banks across the region, units can be sourced in locations that are geographically and strategically appropriate to specific developments.

Bespoke consultancy that saves time and money

What sets Eco-logical Landscapes apart is the way it combines the sale of biodiversity net gain units with tailored ecological consultancy. Rather than offering generic units, the team can work with developers and their planning consultants to understand the red-line boundary, constraints and viability pressures, then to design a BNG strategy that strikes the right balance between on-site enhancements and off-site units. By optimising layout, targeting the right habitats and selecting the most efficient mix of on- and off-site delivery, Eco-logical Landscapes can reduce the total cost of achieving 10% net gain and avoid delays in the planning process. For developers, that means clearer pathways to consent, fewer surprises at committee, and a credible environmental story that can be shared with buyers, investors and local communities.
