Everything You Need to Know About Biodiversity Trust
Biodiversity Trust is a specialist company that creates, restores, and manages habitats across the UK.
We help developers meet their Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG) obligations and support landowners and investors in delivering real environmental improvement — creating spaces where nature and development can thrive together.
Biodiversity Net Gain is a legal requirement under the Environment Act 2021.
It means that all new developments must leave biodiversity in a measurably better state than before — typically delivering at least 10% more biodiversity through habitat creation or enhancement.
We acquire land, carry out ecological assessments, and deliver high-value habitat projects (like wildflower meadows, woodlands, and wetlands).
The biodiversity uplift is then calculated using the Defra Biodiversity Metric, and credits are generated and made available for developers to purchase.
Any developer or housebuilder applying for planning permission on land that cannot achieve the full 10% biodiversity uplift on-site will need to buy off-site biodiversity credits to comply with planning law.
We have a growing network of habitat sites across the UK, chosen for their strategic locations near development zones.
We focus on land with high ecological potential and strong local demand from developers.
All of our sites are protected by 30-year management plans, conservation covenants, and ongoing ecological monitoring.
Our expert team oversees habitat health, ensuring genuine, lasting benefits for nature.
