Wild Ecology
Wild Ecology provides trusted, professional ecological advice and survey work for complex projects. We work with developers, ecological consultancies and Government bodies to undertake ecological surveys.
Support Ecology Projects Nationwide
WildSpace delivers professional ecology services through our experienced team within Wild Ecology. Our work spans large-scale environmental projects, renewable energy sources, and working with consultants to deliver a high-quality of work.
Renewable Energy Projects
Supporting solar, wind farm and coastal developments with clear, reliable ecological surveys to locate and monitor impacts of work.
Species Surveys
Experienced in a range of different surveys starting with Phase 1 Habitat, BNG or PEA then working our way up to more specialist surveys including Schedule 1 species, GCN, Bats & others.
Public & Environmental Bodies
Partnering with local authorities, government-backed schemes and environmental organisations to deliver projects that balance policy, people and nature.
Developers & Consultants
Conducting PEA and BNG surveys to give an overview of the wildlife that may be impacted by development. We also develop mitigation measures to support developments.
Ecological Surveys & Assessments
Ecological surveys are often the first step in understanding the environmental constraints and opportunities of a site. We carry out robust baseline surveys that provide a clear picture of habitats, species presence and ecological value.
Our work includes habitat surveys, protected species surveys and preliminary ecological appraisals, tailored to the scale and sensitivity of each project. We focus on gathering accurate, site-specific data that stands up to scrutiny.
Surveys are planned to align with seasonal requirements and project timelines, helping to avoid unnecessary delays. Where constraints are identified early, we work with clients to explore realistic and proportionate solutions.
Whether supporting renewable energy schemes, land management plans or development proposals, our surveys provide a strong ecological foundation for informed decision-making.
Species Surveys
Our Wild Ecology team have a vast amount of experience within different parts of surveying. Whether you’re looking for impacts on birds through solar farms or wind farms and require Vantage Point, Breeding Bird Surveys, Moorland BBS, or nocturnal roosting surveys – our team are experienced in all of the above.
Focusing on different wildlife is vital for a full ecological assessment. The Wild Ecology team are able to support survey work in:
We also are experienced in species specific surveys whether you’re looking for Black Grouse, nesting Birds of Prey or breeding Waders.
Mitigation, Enhancement & Biodiversity
Protecting and enhancing biodiversity is a key part of responsible development. We design mitigation and enhancement measures that are practical, achievable and tailored to each site.
Our work includes habitat creation, restoration and enhancement strategies that support wildlife while fitting alongside project objectives. We focus on solutions that deliver real ecological value on the ground. Where Biodiversity Net Gain or similar requirements apply, we help clients understand what is needed and how best to deliver it. Our advice is rooted in evidence, feasibility and long-term outcomes.
Our Conservation Management team are experienced in tree-felling, landscape management and mitigation measures ready to aid in your development plans. We are able to conduct tree-climbing surveys, tree assessments and maintenance work on landscapes with ease and experience.

What Our Clients Say
We love hearing how Wildspace has helped people connect with nature. From families discovering new trails to educators using our guides, these stories show the real impact of making the outdoors more accessible for everyone.
It’s been a pleasure welcoming WildSpace into the Swansea City family and working with them on our family stand sensory zone. Their fantastic staff provide a small corner of calm in what is a naturally busy environment at a football stadium, and their presence has been a popular addition to the matchday for many young supporters. We are proud of our work with WildSpace which is helping to make football more inclusive and accessible.

I’ve joined a few of the events, most recently Discover Dinosaurs, which was great. We explored Dunraven Bay for fossils and found loads. I am booked onto a few future events and would definitely recommend them

Wild Space pop-ups at RSPB Bempton are a fantastic asset. The team are great at engaging with visitors and helping to create a welcoming and interactive environment for all. They’re brilliant for bringing conservation to life on the cliffs and deepen people’s appreciation for marine wildlife, both at Bempton and beyond.
