Simply Ecology delivers clear, practical ecological advice across surveys, land use and planning. We support projects from initial site assessment through to reporting and implementation, including Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG) and regulatory compliance. Whether it's a large development or smaller project, we provide solutions that are efficient, compliant and grounded in real-world outcomes.
Our services are structured around three core areas.

Protected species surveys, habitat assessments, planning support

Rewilding, habitat creation, woodland development

Bioversity Net Gain (BNG) strategy, LPA advisory, regulatory planning
