Lighting Impact Assessments

Light tends to be a poorly understood and poorly regulated source of environmental impact which our consultants can provide expert opinions on and assist our clients with a range of issues. 

Poor lighting: 

• can impact negatively on human health through disrupting sleep and circadian rhythms, which leads to negative social and economic impacts  
• interrupt people’s enjoyment of their homes through unwelcome overshadowing and restricted access to daylight. 
• Interrupt peoples enjoyment of the night sky through upward light pollution. 
• impact the behaviour of protected species.
