Our strategy
By remaining a small, client-focused company, Dogwood Ecology aims to works with our clients and partners to provide practical and scientifically defensible advice and assessments.
Health, safety, and the environment
Drawing on 30 years of experience, Dogwood Ecology places the health and safety of its employees and partners first. Our principal ecologist, Mervyn Mason, has successfully completed ecological assessments in some of the most remote regions of the world, and is highly experienced in the requirements for keeping people safe. Similarly, we strive to have as small an impact on the environment as possible with all our activities.
Giving back to the community
Sharing knowledge and expertise is at the core of our ethos. Dogwood Ecology is involved in providing advice and time to improving our local environment, and global conservation efforts.
