BNG BREAKFAST BRIEFING
LINCOLN
Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG) policy came into effect this year and developers across England are still getting to grips with their new requirements. Join us for this event where we'll be breaking down everything you need to know about BNG in your area.
We've carefully selected speakers with expertise to offer guidance on the planning, ecology, and legal aspects of the new policy. They'll be there to give an overview of BNG, explain its requirements, and set out the most effective options for BNG delivery available near to you.
We’ll also be giving an exclusive virtual tour of our Minting Habitat Bank which is already generating off-site Biodiversity Units and unlocking development projects nearby.
To ensure you have ample opportunity to ask all your burning questions about BNG, attendance will be limited so you'll have the chance to speak directly with leading BNG experts who are ready to offer their support.
This session will include an opening by Libby John, Professor and Dean of Sustainability at University of Lincoln.
