Ecology, conservation, nature restoration

Whether you are an ecologist in need of survey support, a landowner looking to implement habitat restoration or a wildlife event, I can provide a personalised approach, tailored to your needs.

Rachel specialises in implementing biodiversity action plans, delivering habitat mapping, baseline ecological assessments, coordinated long-term monitoring, and the restoration and enhancement of natural habitats. Working on both small and large-scale wildlife conservation projects has deepened her understanding of balancing human-led conservation interventions with adaptive rewilding and natural processes.

Based in both Stirlingshire, Scotland and West Sussex in the south of England, Rachel has field experience across a variety of upland and lowland terrestrial ecosystems. She travels extensively for her work and enjoys life on the road.
