BNG & Ecology

At Arena Global Management we recognise the growing importance of Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG) in the planning and development process. As part of the evolving environmental regulations, most planning applications and development proposals are now required to demonstrate a measurable improvement in biodiversity compared to pre-existing levels. This mandatory requirement is essential for your application to be registered and approved by planning authorities.

Our team of ecology and planning experts are here to help you navigate this critical aspect of your development project. We can organise for all of the necessary ecological surveys, ensuring that they are conducted to the highest standards and within the appropriate seasonal windows. These surveys are crucial for accurately assessing the current biodiversity levels on your site, which serves as the baseline for calculating the required net gain.

Once the surveys are completed, we provide detailed BNG calculations, clearly demonstrating how your proposal will meet or exceed the required biodiversity enhancements. Our bespoke approach ensures that these calculations are fully compliant with local and national planning policies, giving your application the best chance of success.

By integrating BNG into your development strategy from the outset, we help you not only meet regulatory requirements but also contribute positively to the environment. Our expertise ensures that your project is designed with sustainability in mind, balancing development needs with ecological considerations.

At Arena Global Management, we are committed to helping you achieve a successful planning outcome while supporting biodiversity and environmental stewardship. Whether you’re working on a small development or a large-scale project, we provide the guidance and expertise needed to ensure compliance with BNG requirements and to promote a greener, more sustainable future.
