HalpinRobbins undertakes professional dormouse surveys throughout Devon, Somerset, Dorset, Wiltshire and across the South West, supporting planning applications, ecological assessments and conservation requirements.
A dormouse survey identifies evidence of dormouse presence through habitat inspection and recognised survey techniques. This assessment establishes baseline information to inform planning decisions and mitigation planning.
Dormouse habitat surveys assess the suitability and connectivity of habitats such as hedgerows, woodland, and scrub. Understanding habitat quality supports avoidance measures and proportionate design decisions.
Dormouse nest surveys record nests and signs of activity within suitable habitat. These surveys help confirm presence and guide the level of protection and mitigation required.
Certain works affecting dormice require a dormouse licence. We provide clear advice on licensing routes, survey evidence requirements, and mitigation measures needed to support an application.
Where impacts cannot be avoided, dormouse mitigation planning sets out measures such as habitat retention, timing controls, and habitat enhancement. This supports compliance while maintaining ecological connectivity.
Dormouse survey findings are presented in clear reports suitable for planning submission and consultation. Reporting supports efficient planning authority review and informed decision-making.
