About Us
Offering expert advice with a proven specialism in freshwater.
Vision statement
Forth Rivers Consulting exists to support the Forth Rivers Trust by delivering high-quality, ethical professional services that generate unrestricted funding. We aspire to be a trusted partner for businesses, landowners, and public bodies seeking expert guidance on river and habitat management, restoration, and biodiversity enhancement.
Our vision is to create a future where professional expertise directly fuels the protection and restoration of the Forth’s habitats and wildlife. Through transparent, ethical, and impactful consultancy, we will help safeguard natural habitats, enable resilient ecosystems, and empower communities to connect with and care for their local environment.
By combining rigorous scientific knowledge, practical experience, and ethical practice, Forth Rivers Consulting will ensure that every project contributes to a thriving, biodiverse, and sustainable Forth Catchment, while simultaneously supporting the Trust’s mission to inspire action, nurture biodiversity, and model best practice in river restoration and nature-based solutions.
Our Charitable Trust Connection
FRC Ltd was established with a purpose beyond profit – we are intrinsically linked to Forth Rivers Trust; a charitable organisation committed to the vision of sustainable rivers and thriving ecosystems. Every project we undertake contributes directly to Forth RT’s charitable objectives, creating a meaningful impact on environmental conservation, community engagement, and the overall well-being of the Forth region.
Specialised Expertise and Tailored Packages
We pride ourselves on offering a diverse range of expertise in highly specialised environmental services. Whether it’s habitat surveys, water quality or animal welfare management, restoration design and advice, or any of our other services, our team is equipped with the knowledge and skills to deliver tailored solutions that meet the unique needs of our clients.
Legislative Expertise
Our consultancy benefits from strong connections with Forth District Salmon Fishery Board (FDSFB) and Forth Rivers Trust. Our unique position allows us to navigate complex legislation, ensuring our clients not only meet regulatory requirements but also contribute positively to broader environmental goals.
Forging Local Partnerships
Our commitment extends beyond consultancy services; we actively engage with and support local communities in the Forth region. By leveraging our networks and experience, we strengthen the bond between environmental initiatives and the people who call the Forth home, fostering a sense of shared responsibility and collaboration.
Unwavering Ethical Standards
Ethics isn’t just a policy for us; it’s a commitment to excellence. Our recently launched Ethics Policy reflects our dedication to the highest ethical standards in the sector. Through this, we aim not only to guide our own practices but also to set a benchmark for ethical boundaries, indirectly contributing to improved industry-wide practices among our clients.
