Did you know? The benefits of habitat banking in the Arun district
Habitat banking is a system where land is enhanced for wildlife, generating biodiversity credits that developers can buy to help ensure new developments leave nature better off than before.
Over time, residents will see more wildlife-rich spaces, improved habitats for birds, butterflies and pollinators, and greener landscapes that support both nature and people.
These habitats are not simply created and abandoned. They are managed and monitored for at least 30 years, with specialist ecological oversight to help ensure they continue to improve over time.
By investing in local habitat creation and restoration, Habitat Banking can help support nature recovery while creating attractive and accessible green spaces for communities to enjoy.
