Building on two decades of pollinator research by the UK Centre for Ecology & Hydrology, this free e-book aims to advise farmers and other landowners how to create habitat to support pollinating bees on their land.
This document presents the case for doing Health Impact Assessments of proposals affecting greenspace, but it could also be more widely applicable to other types of nature-based solutions.
This fact sheet provides guidance on the creation of new areas of simple heathland vegetation on former agricultural land.
A free guide for developers and house-builders, with tips on how to build in hedgehog-friendly features to new developments, as part of a green infrastructure network.
