Brookbanks: Built on Trust, Expertise, and a Personal Touch for Over Two Decades
In a world where infrastructure and development consultancy is often dominated by large, impersonal firms, Brookbanks stands apart - a company that has quietly built a reputation for reliability, consistency, and deep client relationships over the past 28 years.
Proudly Privately Owned and UK-Based:
Established in 1997, Brookbanks has remained privately owned and proudly UK-based, allowing it to maintain a strong sense of identity and independence. This autonomy empowers the company to make decisions that are in the best interest of its clients, rather than shareholders, ensuring a bespoke and responsive service.
Expertise That Rivals the Giants:
Brookbanks offers a comprehensive suite of services in infrastructure, environmental management, and development finance. With a team of seasoned professionals, the company brings decades of collective experience to every project. Whether it’s navigating complex planning regulations or delivering sustainable infrastructure solutions, Brookbanks combines technical excellence with strategic insight.
Big Enough to Deliver, Small Enough to Care:
What truly sets Brookbanks apart is its unique position in the market. It’s large enough to offer the depth of knowledge and resources required for major projects, yet small enough to maintain close, personal relationships with clients. Unlike larger competitors, Brookbanks ensures that every client receives direct access to senior experts, fostering trust and continuity throughout the project lifecycle.
A Legacy of Reliability and Consistency:
Over two decades, Brookbanks has cultivated a reputation for delivering on promises. Clients return not just for the company’s technical capabilities, but for its unwavering commitment to quality, transparency, and partnership. In an industry where change is constant, Brookbanks remains a steady, dependable force.

Brookbanks Webinar: Comprehensive Coordination for Environmental Impact Assessments

In this webinar we explore how Environmental Impact Assessments (EIAs) can be better coordinated to support clearer, more robust planning decisions. Annabel Le Lohé and Katherine Peers set out how EIAs are intended to function, before focusing on the practical considerations that influence how effective an assessment is in practice, from early briefing decisions through to long‑term delivery. The session was aimed at those working across planning, development and technical disciplines who are involved in preparing, coordinating or contributing to EIAs, particularly on large and complex schemes.
