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

    Hello everyone,

    We have had over the past couple of days numerous reports of cow 145 which is very lame with a swollen shin. Each report we have had we have passed onto the grazier who has taken the information of board. I spoke to them again today and stressed the fact that so many people are ringing in with concerns and he said he would go down again to try to catch the cow and remedy the problem. This will be the second time the famer has tried to catch this cow in the past week or so as it managed to be too quick, despite its injury, for the farmers to herd last time. I will keep you posted as to how this situation continues.

    Thanks

    Elliott
