Sustainable Development and Healthy Rivers

As the demand for nature-positive development grows, we collaborate with developers, landowners, local authorities, and conservation partners to ensure that biodiversity is not only protected but also enhanced. Our projects restore natural processes, support priority species, and reconnect fragmented habitats, thereby creating vibrant, functioning river ecosystems that benefit both people and wildlife.  

Our Approach to Sustainable Development and Nature Restoration

  • We collaborate with developers, landowners, local authorities, and conservation bodies 
  • We create and manage Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG) units that provide long-term ecological value 
  • We ensure all projects are based on the latest science, policy guidance, and catchment priorities 
  • We are committed to transparency, accountability, and integrity 


At River Habitat Bank CIC, we don’t just meet the standards, we help raise them.

How do we help developers de-risk their projects?
