Take the Challenge by making a BIG impact
on biodiversity in construction
What is the Biodiversity Challenge?
The Biodiversity Challenge Awards encourage the construction industry to ‘go BIG for nature’ by putting biodiversity at the centre of projects to deliver beyond normal business practice and compliance with applicable legislation such as BNG in England.
A biodiversity enhancement is an action that improves biodiversity and ecological habitat in the local environment. Enhancements should increase opportunities for biodiversity and go beyond normal business practice or predetermined planning and construction conditions.
Biodiversity enhancements can be simple or more complex intervention(s). Examples of these include bird or bat boxes, insect habitat creation, wildflower meadows or wetland restoration.
