The concept of working at a landscape-scale has revolutionised conservation in the UK. The publication of Sir John Lawton's report 'Making Space for Nature' created the political space in which we can now start to rebuild our damaged ecological networks.

Followed by the Natural Environment White Paper engagement with initiatives such as Nature Improvement Areas, Local Nature Partnerships to achieve real gains for wildlife in the future.

We can advise and support you in achieving your ambitions for:

• Landscape scale conservation projects
• Creating and managing nature reserves
• Conservation enhancements in the wider landscape
• Promoting community engagement
