About Us

David Fell and Jayne Cox established Brook Lyndhurst in 1999. The company remains a niche consultancy that seeks to apply world class thinking and techniques to the many and complex issues of sustainability.

We work alongside clients to devise strategies and plans that will deliver more sustainable outcomes - at the level of individual and household behaviour, through to local communities, to whole markets and strategic policy.

Brook Lyndhurst is concerned, in particular, with the behavioural aspects of sustainability - why individuals and institutions behave as they do now, the impacts they have, and how creative measures can be developed to trigger behaviour change.

Our team combines expertise across a broad spectrum - ranging from economics to psychology; from sociology to environmental management - reflecting the broad and complex nature of sustainable development.

In pursuit of these objectives Brook Lyndhurst undertakes projects which:

• deliver meaningful results to clients
• are found interesting and rewarding by the company's employees
• offer long run development potential, to the company and wider society
• produce a modest profit

Brook Lyndhurst is committed to working towards a more sustainable economy and as a result we endeavour to 'walk the talk' in the conduct of our business. Our "Statement of Values" sets out in more detail how we try to do this, and how we measure our impact.

Our consultancy style is to work closely and collaboratively with clients. This ensures that:

• clients are engaged in the evolution of ideas and solutions
• our analysis stays clear and focused
• recommendations are practical and applicable in the worlds in which clients operate

In practice, our work tends to combine two complementary approaches: on the one hand, a combination of research, analysis and synthesis to help clients understand a situation (data collection, surveys, case studies, literature reviews etc.); on the other, collaborative processes in order to help clients develop and implement strategic solutions and specific actions (presentations, consultations, workshops and seminars).
