About Essential Ecology
Essential Ecology is an independent consultancy based in Worcestershire which provides a wide range of high-quality ecological consultancy services and protected species surveys from conception through to completed development. We work on projects of all scales from householder applications to large-scale developments in a range of sectors. Given our central location, we are well positioned to work across the UK although the majority of work is within the Midlands area, particularly within Worcestershire, Warwickshire, Gloucestershire, Herefordshire, Shropshire and Staffordshire.
With over 10 years of experience, Essential Ecology is committed to helping you navigate environmental legislation, conduct ecological surveys and provide sound ecological advice to achieve pragmatic and effective solutions in line with best practice guidance. By working closely with clients and design teams, we aim to achieve the clients desired outcomes whilst protecting ecological interest and securing long-term benefits for biodiversity.
