Planning

Advice on Planning & Development for Ecologists, Planners and Local Advocates.

Inappropriate or poorly-planned development represents one of the greatest risks to Scotland’s badger populations.  In order that proposed development fully considers potential impacts on badgers, Scottish Badgers has produced a range of guidance documents for developers, planners and our volunteers. 

Our guidance documents can be downloaded below or, for further information and support, contact  us at operationscoordinator@scottishbadgers.org.uk.
