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!

    1130-1200-ish. Found a large group of 63 spread around O/P 21/22. Plus an advance party of 3 at S16.

    Cow 145 was with the large group. When I arrived she was sitting with the bad leg straight out infront of her - the knee and shin looking badly swollen. When she stood to give one of the calves a feed, she was holding the bad leg up with it just swinging and floppy.

    Other than 145, all the others looked in good health. I didn't see any weepy eyes.
