Delivering your BNG requirements, responsibly and reliably.

Simple, comprehensive solutions to deliver your off-site BNG
As a family business with over 35 years of experience in property development across Cambridgeshire, and with established wilding projects on our family farm, we bring a unique understanding of both sides of the new Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG) legislation. We are here to support developers at every stage—from the initial survey through to fulfilling all BNG conditions—offering knowledgeable, reliable guidance grounded in our experience as both developers and dedicated land stewards.
Through our wilding projects, we can provide a diverse range of BNG units (or fractions thereof) to ensure full compliance with the latest government requirements. Unlike brokers, we’re conscientious landowners who are deeply committed to enhancing biodiversity through the restoration of natural woodland regrowth, enriched hedgerows, and flourishing wildflower meadows.
As a trusted, locally-supported provider of BNG units, we work hand in hand with our Local Planning Authority (LPA), making us a reliable partner for developers who are seeking high-quality, ecologically responsible solutions for their projects.
What is BNG?
Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG) represents an innovative approach to development and land management, prioritising the enhancement of the natural environment. New legislation requires that every development project not only mitigates biodiversity loss but also delivers a 10% net gain.
As early providers of BNG in East Anglia, our units are registered and readily available for purchase.
These units originate from our wilding projects near Cambridge, empowering regional businesses to comply seamlessly with the latest planning legislation in Cambridgeshire, Suffolk, Norfolk, Essex and beyond.

On-Site vs Off-Site
Creating viable, diverse habitats and wildlife communities often requires connectivity and adequate scale, which can be challenging on development sites.
We believe that allocating green space for biodiversity in small areas within individual developments (on-site), poses risks to both biodiversity and the developer’s BNG strategy which requires the developer to manage the biodiversity enhancement for a 30 year period.
Purchasing BNG units off-site with us takes the hassle away from developers and into our trusted care.

How can we deliver your units?
We provide off-site BNG units through our own wilding projects, assuming the responsibility and risk on behalf of developers, allowing them to concentrate solely on their own projects.
Already equipped with a S106 agreement and a comprehensive 30-year management plan (HMMP), we are able to deliver the developers required Biodiversity Gain Plan quickly and efficiently.
As conscientious land stewards, we pledge to monitor the habitat for over 30 years, ensuring our BNG units are 100% secure, third-party verified, and hassle free.
