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!

    Cow 145 treatment with antibiotics

    Good morning.

    Rob, the farmer, has been out to check the cow (145) with the swollen leg last week and this weekend.
    It has an infection in the cleft of the foot which is causing swelling in the foot and shin. It has been administered antibiotics on Thursday (9th) and Friday (10th) of last week and will be given another dose today. This will complete the course, so we should start to see an improvement this week.

    If there is no improvement then the cow will be taken off site for further treatment.

    Thank-you for your reports on this
