Our Core Services

About Us

W ild Service is the Ecological Consultancy for the Gloucestershire Wildlife Trust. As such, the company reinvests its profits into local conservation work undertaken by Gloucestershire Wildlife Trust.

It also means that we are part of a wider network of Wildlife Trust Consultancies enabling us to offer national delivery with local expertise.

All our work is carried out to a high professional standard in accordance with the Chartered Institute of Ecology and Environmental Management (CIEEM) code of practice.

We work with a variety of clients, ranging from individual clients to developers, as well as architects, planners, local government, public utility companies, charities, housing associations, construction and engineering companies.

If you think your development may require ecological services, please contact us for an informal discussion about how we may be able to assist you.
