Two more companies support wildlife charity

Northumberland Wildlife Trust is delighted to welcome two new companies as corporate members.

Excavation company Colton Excavations Ltd has joined the Trust as a bronze member. Operating throughout the UK from its two depots in Birtley and Tanfield, the company is part of The Colton Group, a family-run business with over 45 years’ experience in earth moving and civil engineering.

Colton Excavations Ltd was established in 1999 and specialises in civil engineering, land reclamation, land remediation & restoration, major highway projects, landfill engineering, design & construction of timber crib walls and environmental projects including Coastal Erosion Protection.

The second company to sign up is Bell Ingram, one of the UK’s largest firms of independent land agents with 130 professional members of staff in 11 offices across the country, joined the Trust as a corporate member in September.

Specialising in rural management for private clients and also one of the UK’s leading providers of land management services to the energy sector, Bell Ingram has been working for major utility providers since the 1970s and more recently with large scale renewable energy providers.

Bell Ingram strongly believes it has a duty to enhance the positive and minimise the negative environmental, social and economic aspects of its activities. The Company has developed its Corporate Social Responsibility Policy detailing how it expects its staff, members, suppliers, business partners, contractors and customers to be treated and to behave towards each other, the community and environment.

Speaking about the two new corporate members, Mike Pratt, Northumberland Wildlife Trust Chief Executive said: “From cuckoos to curlews, dormice to daisies, they are precious and we strive to conserve them every last one of them which is no mean feat given the size of the area we cover; the financial help from Bell Ingram and Colton Excavations Ltd will help us achieve this and I am sure, they are going to enjoy working with us in the future.”
