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!

    I am a bit late with this I met another dog walker this morning ,8.am he is not one of the lookers however if he sees anything unusual he lets me know ,he told me that yesterday late afternoon he saw a calf all on its own lying in a deep ditch this is on the main track between grid squares p 15.16 and the cattle grid on the way to beacon hill road, he was a bit worried as he said he thought it was dead as it was not moving ,and was lying full length feet streched out and its head on the ground ,he stood for some time watching ,it eventually got up scrambled up the bank and slowly walked towards the trees at the water tower ,there was no other cattle near it ,and it was nowhere to be seen this morning .

    1. Thanks Norman
      The cattle are very good at noticing that their calves are missing and will often moo loudly. I am sure that they will have met up after a while.
