Projects that belong to their communities
Our projects are working green spaces in the places they sit, not just numbers on a register. Where the habitat allows, we open them up to schools, local groups and the developers whose projects they support, so people can see the difference for themselves.
Education
School and college groups visit suitable sites for field sessions on ecology, habitat restoration and careers in the green economy, linked to the curriculum and designed with teachers.
Wild Blitz recording days
Where habitat sensitivity allows, we run guided walks and Wild Blitz days, when local people, naturalists and families help us record the wildlife returning to a site. The records feed our monitoring and build local pride in the place.
Local contractors and suppliers
We use local contractors, consultants and suppliers for groundworks, planting, surveys and long-term management, which keeps the spending in the local economy and builds regional skills.
Stakeholder visits
We host visits at the mitigation site itself, so developers and promoters can show councillors, residents and other stakeholders what their project has paid for on the ground.
Public access depends on the habitat and the species it supports, so some sites stay private and are visited by arrangement only.
