Moving into wildlife and conservation

tes has expanded its environmental portfolio with a contract from Natural England to produce a Natural Economy Northwest SITA report containing biodiversity case studies.

Associate director Paul Clarke says, “It has been one of our ambitions to work with Natural England, so we are all very pleased that we have made this first important step.

We hope that the project will open the door to further work with Natural England and within the wildlife and conservation sector.”

The report, which will highlight the socio-economic benefits of biodiversity, will be presented at the prestigious 7th Annual UK Biodiversity Partnership Conference in early October.
