Mandatory Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG) has brought major changes to development, planning and legal practice and with the latest updates coming into effect in January 2026, many real estate lawyers are seeking clearer guidance on how to navigate the new requirements.
To support this, Landmark is working with Manchester Law Society to deliver a free webinar designed to help legal professionals understand the legislation, the practicalities, and the risks their clients need to be aware of.
Landmark’s Patrick Speer (Consulting Lead) and Simon Boyle (Environmental Law Director) will be sharing expert insight on:
