Business Breakfast

‘Working with Water – Capturing the Opportunities’

Join us for an insightful morning dedicated to the critical exploration of water and its profound impact on the land and environmental sectors.

Our discussions will be focused around:

  • Strategic landscape content and catchment planning within the Nene Valley.
  • On-site landscape design integrating water and forging connections with the wider environment.
  • Emerging commercial opportunities and partnership links, highlighting substantial value for all parties involved.

Given the increasing challenges of climate change, including flooding, river pollution and summer droughts, Nicholsons is actively collaborating with partners in this space.

Our speakers for the morning will be:

From Left, John Lockhart (Nicholsons, Principal Consultant) will introduce and round up, highlighting Nicholsons involvement with water resource management, in particular our flagship catchment driven project in the Dorn and Glyme Valley on the Blenheim Estate.

Julie Hutton-Attenborough (Nicholsons, Senior Landscape Architect) will then outline the role for landscape design within the development sector to work effectively with water.

We are delighted to be joined by two very influential external speakers to support our excellent team.

Tristan Baxter-Smith (Nene Rivers Trust Funding, Land Advisor) will provide us with an understanding of The Trust’s work and aspirations around business partnerships, local nature recovery aspirations and biodiversity net gain in the River Nene catchment.

Finally, Digby Sowerby (Natural Capital Advisory, Operations Officer) will outline the emerging opportunities for landowners and managers to work with developers, regulators and statutory agencies to develop real business opportunities in the water management space.

This event will be valuable to all involved in this sector, including regulators and statutory agencies, charities, developers, planners, landowners and agents, offering a unique opportunity to network and engage with a range of key partners.

Places will be booked on a first come, first served basis with a waiting list in place thereafter.

We look forward to discussing this topic with you as well as developing new opportunities for collaboration.

Natural Capital – Less Talk, More Action!

November

This breakfast event will focus on the critical subject of Natural Capital.

Our aim will be to cut through some of the jargon and marketing rhetoric and provide you with clarity as to how you need to proceed in this space to ensure you protect your business and maximise opportunities with real confidence. As a business, we have been supporting our clients for over 30 years and are right at the cutting edge of the emerging opportunities.

John Lockhart, Principal Consultant, will introduce and round up, providing an understanding of why natural capital is important and explaining how we are turning theory into practice.

We are delighted to be joined by Kate Russell, Chief Operating Officer of Tellus Natural Capital Ltd, who is hugely experienced in this area. We have been working closely over recent months. Kate will provide an update as to where we are now, the development of the emerging markets and the opportunities that could be available to you and your projects.

Liz Nicholson, Managing Director, will conclude our speaker sessions by presenting on the real opportunities that are being developed for Nature Credits by Nicholsons in conjunction with the Forest Canopy Foundation and Grown in Britain. The session will round off with case study examples and an open panel discussion.

Our aim will be to provide delegates with a balanced and robust understanding of the current position, its potential value and a clear pathway to take things forward. 

This event is aimed at Planners, Developers, Landowners, Housebuilders, Architects, Project Managers and Local Authorities.
We have 80 places available, and these will be booked on a first come/first served basis. A reserve list will be maintained for those not initially successful.
