We inspire and empower local communities to connect with their nature spaces, foster local understanding of biodiversity, and train volunteers on how to protect and enhance their green and blue infrastructure for future generations. Our ecologists give tailored, expert advice and support on habitat management and creation, engagement with nature recovery, sources of funding, and signpost to further guidance.
