  OpenSpace works with major nature conservation organisations to maintain and manage important wildlife sites.

The British countryside has seen a general decline in important wildlife areas in recent years through the drainage of the descruction of native woodlands, and the ploughing up of old hay meadows. A key task in our work is to encourage the creation of new habitat areas to benefit Britain's natural wildlife. This we do within our landscaping and planting projects.

We have 18 years experience in the management of nature reserves, wildlife sites and large scale habitat projects. we provide consultancy to project teams and can assist with operational management, writing habitat management plans, budget planning, undertake habitat work, estate work, interpretation, publicity and providing wildlife education services.
