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!

    Site visit

    Hello everyone.

    Upon arriving to check the cows and fix a gate I was welcomed by 6 police cars and an ambulance all with lights flashing which made my heart flutter a bit. It turned out that a lady had broken her leg somewhere on site and they could not get into the site as they did not have a key. Anyway, after letting them in I quickly found the cows all down in squares L22, M22 and N22. Some of them were grazing teh new flush of grass which has greened up the large burn from a few months back. All 49 were counted and some of the calves are absolute cuties (especially the grey one!). Loely to see them all grazing and moving as a herd.

    I then when and fixed a gate in S15 which was being left open by motorbikers/quadbikers. Hopefully what I have done will resolve the problem but where there is a will there is a way.
