What our customers say

Sam Minett-Smith

Principal Environmental Manager, Speller Metcalfe

As the principal representatives of Speller Metcalfe Environmental Management, I require skilled, knowledgeable, agile and approachable ecological subcontractors. Having worked within Environmental Management for 18 years, achieving Chartered status, I have worked with many ecological specialists, both within Britain and internationally. I can say, with no hesitation, Focus is my priority selection in their field of expertise.

The team’s knowledge base is unquestionable, and this is demonstrated by the accuracy and precision of their range of services. Further, there personal approach allows my company to feel valued, effectively as an extension of our team.

Focus are agile enough to support a principal contractor at the sharp end of works, offering realistic and achievable mitigations that support construction but absolutely unquestionably support, regulatory and moral obligations.”

Jonathan Adams

Director, Tetlow King Planning

I am very pleased to write on behalf of Tetlow King Planning in support of your recent work supporting an application and appeal for a recent large housing proposal at Calne, Wiltshire.

In my dealings with Focus Ecology I have found the team to be very organised, professional, focused, honest and quick to act. This was even more evident when working with Graham, as at all times you provided pragmatic advice tailored exactly to the client’s and site’s complex needs. Your work at the appeal hearing was a masterclass in how to deliver specialist advice in an open, informative and persuasive manner, getting buy-in from the Inspector, the local authority’s expert and interested parties in the face of stiff opposition. This carried on to the appeal site visit, in which the delivery of your expertise was central to showcasing how ecology can be effectively managed and development mitigated. This provided the client with the greatest chance of securing a valuable planning consent.

I have no hesitation in recommending you to our clients and look forward to working alongside you in the future.

Matt Tyas

Principal Planner, Zesta Planning

We’ve been working closely with the friendly team at Focus over the last year in relation to a greenfield housing development in Worcestershire. They have helped us to overcome obstacles at every stage of the process, from the initial validation of the application right through to the appeal which is currently being dealt with by public inquiry. The site presented a number of challenges including a range of protected species issues and priority habitats. Focus have played a pivotal role in the process and have ultimately helped us to secure a favourable recommendation from the Council’s Ecologist and design for substantial biodiversity net gains on site whilst maximising the site’s development potential. We’re looking froward to working with Nat, Graham and the rest of the team at Focus on future projects.

Deborah Stevens

Private Client

Focus Environmental supported us on site whilst we removed the roof of our house. They conducted site surveys and a toolbox talk to ensure the builders fully understood what they needed to do if they found bats or nesting birds. Everyone who we dealt with was knowledgeable and helpful. I highly recommend Focus Environmental.
