The Green Partnership

What The Green Partnership does

The Green Partnership is a UK-based, privately held landscape consultancy (legal entity: The Green Partnership Group Ltd) that advises housing providers, commercial property companies, local authorities, and property management firms on biodiversity, green infrastructure, and nature-positive land use. Its work is organised around a proprietary five-stage lifecycle: Assess (ecological, biodiversity, and arboricultural baselines using DEFRA's Statutory Biodiversity Metric and BS5837-compliant surveys); Strategise (green space, BNG, and nature recovery strategies, action plans, toolkits, training); Design (landscape, habitat, and nature-based solutions); Deliver (planning support, project management, habitat brokerage); and Steward (long-term management plans, monitoring, clerk of works, procurement support).

The firm monetises through project-based professional services fees (not publicly disclosed) and uses free virtual CPD training sessions as a top-of-funnel channel to generate leads within the housing sector. It cites 50+ client engagements, with named logos dominated by UK social housing groups (Peabody, Notting Hill Genesis, Clarion, VIVID, Hyde, Orbit, Anchor, Paradigm, whg) and one notable commercial property client (CLS Holdings plc). The team is small (approximately 4-5 visible members: a Director, two Principal Consultants with chartered credentials in landscape architecture and arboriculture/ecology, and supporting staff), and the firm is founder-led with no external funding disclosed. Strategic positioning emphasises nature-positive, people-centric design over pure compliance, supported by partnerships with Housemark, Parks for London, and Sintali on best-practice and stewardship standards.
