Working with landowners and estate managers
Whirledge & Nott work with land managers of small and large estates to identify opportunities for environmental schemes that may provide an additional source of income or alternative approach to land management.
We can help you understand the commitments and stages of creating Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG) Units through the establishment of habitat such as permanent grassland, scrubland and woodland.
