Rising public complaints due to untidy public spaces and inconsistent service standards
Challenges in meeting biodiversity net gain and environmental obligations
Resource strain managing fragmented service providers across diverse sites

Protect
Local authorities are entrusted with maintaining the spaces that shape community life – from town centres and public parks to highways, housing estates, and civic buildings. At Nurture, we provide fully integrated grounds maintenance, landscaping and landscape construction, arboriculture and tree care, pest control, winter gritting, interior and exterior plant displays, and biodiversity consultancy to help councils deliver safe, attractive, and environmentally responsible public environments.
Our teams understand the need to balance operational efficiency, public safety, and environmental stewardship. Whether it’s keeping green spaces vibrant and welcoming, managing roadside vegetation and tree stocks for visibility and safety, protecting play areas and sports pitches, or delivering seasonal planting that boosts civic pride, we work in partnership with local authorities to meet their priorities. Our winter maintenance services keep paths, car parks, and transport routes open during severe weather, while our pest management programmes protect public health and assets.
We also help councils meet their biodiversity and sustainability obligations, with practical solutions that support pollinator habitats, enhance biodiversity net gain, and improve carbon footprint performance. With national coverage, robust safety processes, and transparent reporting, Nurture ensures your assets are well maintained, your community is well served, and your reputation is upheld.
