Welcome to OpenSpace.

OpenSpace is a specialist Ecological Consultancy and Conservation Contracting company. Our services cover a broad range of disciplines. OpenSpace can help you with protected species surveys (bats, birds, great crested newts, reptiles, badgers, white-clawed crayfish, otters, etc.), botanical/habitat surveys (Phase 1 Habitat and Extended Phase 1 Habitat, National Vegetation Classfication (NVC), hedges, macrophytes (aquatic plants of lakes and rivers), rare plants and bryophytes, etc.) and ecological assessments for development planning, planning applications, and ecological mitigation.

Based in Cumbria, OpenSpace is well placed to undertake projects throughout the UK. OpenSpace employs a team of highly skilled, friendly professionals, with an indepth practical experience and a strong customer-focused approach. We regularly advise private clients, developers, architects, project managers, planners, engineers, and other industry professionals. We are brought in at an early stage of each project and our approach aims to save you time and money. We believe our services are more competitive and better value for money than larger, corporate consultancies.
