Emergency Procedure

If you need to report an emergency to us such as injured or escaped livestock or damaged infrastructure please follow this procedure:

  1. Call the office on 01256 381190.
  2. If no one answers, wait for the answering message which will detail the name and mobile number of the member of staff who is currently on call.
  3. Phone the on-call member of staff who will then respond accordingly.

NOTES:

  • Please do not phone a member of staff directly unless you know they are on-call.

  • If you are unsure if a particular situation qualifies as an emergency then please phone the on-call member of staff anyway so that they can make the decision on how to proceed.

  • Most importantly of all – please do not report injuries or sick animals via the blog alone – always call the emergency on-call contact.


    Thank you!

    One lame cow

    Went out again this evening and found them at ~H28, grazing contentedly as the sun was setting. I counted 35 several times over, including one point where they crossed a path in small numbers. One of the brown cows appears to be lame on the left front hoof. I tried to get her ear tag number but although they were content enough to let me get among them she wouldn't stay still long enough for me to get a good look in the failing light.
