About Us

At Biodiversity and Habitat Solutions, we bring over 15 years of hands-on experience in creating and maintaining wildflower meadows, species-rich hedgerows, and native woodlands across the South East. Leveraging this deep ecological knowledge, we have developed a robust network of Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG) units in Kent, tailored to meet the growing demand for off-site BNG solutions from the housebuilding and construction sectors.

Our strategic location ensures seamless integration with development projects throughout Kent, Sussex, and Surrey, making us a reliable partner for planners, developers, and local authorities seeking compliant and conservation-driven outcomes.

Our Managing Director, John Newbury, has led the creation of the Chalksole Farm Habitat Bank and has undertaken advanced training in Biodiversity Net Gain implementation. John brings extensive expertise in:

  • Conducting BNG feasibility assessments

  • Interpreting and co-authoring Habitat Management and Monitoring Plans (HMMPs)

  • Advising on the correct application of condition sheets to meet habitat targets
