Evesham Planning Portal: Applying for Planning Permission

The Evesham Planning Portal is the official platform for submitting, managing, and tracking planning applications in the Evesham area. Designed to be clear and user-friendly, it allows applicants to upload required documents, follow the progress of their applications, and receive timely updates. Local residents can also use the portal to view or comment on applications during the consultation period.

To maximise the chance of approval and ensure compliance with Wychavon District Council’s environmental policies, it’s recommended to seek ecological advice as early as possible. Collington Winter provides specialist consultancy to guide you through every stage of the planning process.

Collington Winter Environmental offers a full range of ecological services to strengthen applications submitted via the Evesham Planning Portal:

• Ecological Surveys – Preliminary Ecological Appraisals (PEAs) to assess habitats, protected species, and site constraints. Where necessary, we also recommend and carry out further detailed ecological surveys to ensure all requirements are met.
• Protected Species Assessment – Surveys for bats, badgers, great crested newts, reptiles, and nesting birds in line with UK and EU law. If protected species are found, we provide mitigation and licensing support, enabling your project to progress responsibly while safeguarding local wildlife.
• Tree surveys – Assessing tree health, root protection areas, and implications of Tree Preservation Orders (TPOs). We also advise on tree retention, protection measures, and compensation planting where removal is unavoidable.
• Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG) – Measuring biodiversity and creating plans to meet the mandatory 10% net gain under the Environment Act 2021.
• Landscape Surveys – Considering the ecological and visual impacts of developments. This helps strengthen your application by demonstrating a balanced approach to development and environmental protection.
• Ecological Clerk of Works – On-site monitoring during construction to ensure ecological requirements are properly followed.

Our consultants provide tailored ecological advice to help your project meet planning requirements and environmental standards. Throughout the planning application process, we deliver thorough assessments, clear recommendations, and ongoing support.
