TEP is an independent consultancy providing high-quality advice in planning, design and environmental services, with a strong focus on personal service.

Blending environmental science with creative vision, we bring clarity and care to every project; helping shape spaces that honour biodiversity, support wellbeing and stand resilient in a changing world.


For over 28 years, our planners, designers and environmental experts have collaborated with intelligence, imagination and purpose to help clients create successful, resilient places.

From local authorities and developers to charities and national agencies, we deliver practical solutions that balance the needs of communities, heritage and the natural world.



We’re trusted for our integrity, expertise and friendly, professional service.

Planning

We guide projects from first idea to final delivery, combining expertise in planning, heritage and environmental assessment with a deep commitment to collaboration and successful outcomes. Our approach ensures plans are not only sustainable and sensitive to place, but also shaped through meaningful engagement, supporting confident decision-making and long-term value.

Design

Through thoughtful, nature-based design, we deliver sustainable, high-quality landscapes that restore natural systems, enrich communities, stimulate economic regeneration and contribute to a healthier, more resilient environment. From urban spaces to natural landscapes, we collaborate closely with clients, communities, and stakeholders to develop strategies and detailed designs which create places where people and nature thrive.

Environment

We support practical, nature-led solutions that promote biodiversity, climate resilience and long-term stewardship, combining scientific insight with creative thinking. From enhancing habitats and managing green assets to guiding strategic land use, our work is shaped by innovation and collaboration. Across a wide range of sectors, we help clients create ecologically rich, sustainable and well cared-for environments.

Technical & Specialist Support

Our technical services combine environmental expertise with precision and collaboration. We provide robust data, clear analysis and practical solutions to support confident decision-making. From surveying and mapping to environmental modelling and digital tools, including our bespoke HabiTEP habitat assessment platform, our work ensures every project is informed, measurable and aligned with long term environmental goals.
