About Us
Insight Ecology is an independent consultancy providing a pragmatic, evidence-based approach to ecological advice and implementation to planners, developers, multi-disciplinary consultancies and contractors.

We specialise in projects involving the conversion or demolition of buildings and modification of natural habitats for infrastructure, with licences to disturb, capture, radio-tag and ring bats. We maintain a strong network of regional associates to support our projects, each engaged for their expertise on a particular species or habitat, and commitment to our company values.
