Natural Capital is a term that describes all renewable and non-renewable resources from which we derive a range of goods and services. This includes, land, soil, minerals water and the type of vegetation on them. The services we benefit from includes crops, fuel, timber, water, as well as the environmental services such as water quality, flood control, biodiversity, pollination and so on.
Everybody benefits from the responsible and positive management of Natural Capital from individual landowners, neighbours as well as wider society. Nowhere is this more evident than in the challenges that we are facing around climate change.”
Our services include:
- Natural Capital advice and assessments

- Advice on current and future land use of estates and farms
- Advice on carbon sequestration for restoring peatlands and creating new woodlands
