Why partner with Essex Wildlife Trust?

Essex Wildlife Trust possesses in-depth knowledge of the region's habitats, species, and ecological priorities. We also provide BNG consultation to guide developers through compliance and habitat planning. 

Essex Wildlife Trust’s BNG units come from habitats we own and actively manage. With decades of conservation experience since 1959, we don’t just take responsibility for BNG, we manage it together, protecting habitats and wildlife for the next 30 years and beyond.

We also have a range of Biodiversity Units such as Abbotts Hall nature reserve, giving developers access to Biodiversity Units in a variety of habitat types.

Collaborating with a well-established conservation organisation can facilitate smoother planning processes. Essex Wildlife Trust's involvement can provide additional assurance to local planning authorities regarding the credibility and sustainability of your biodiversity commitments.

Partnering with a respected local charity demonstrates corporate social responsibility and a commitment to environmental stewardship. This can enhance your company's reputation and foster goodwill within the community.

By purchasing BNG units from Essex Wildlife Trust, you contribute directly to the Trust's broader conservation efforts, including habitat restoration, species recovery, and the creation of ecological networks across the county.
