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 found cattle this morning 7.30 they were spread along the track behind bricksbury hill housing ,I only counted 20 they were eating the young shoots on the blackberry bushes 145 was there she is walking perfectly now ,the one with the collar was also there ,her eye is still weeping, her eye was partly closed ,remember I reported the loose fence at the field gate grid p 24 the same cow that was pushing against the fence was there she turns her head on one side and gets her head under the barbed wire and then pushes against the sheep netting to get at the better feed on the other side ,she did this several times at different places I thought she was going to break her way through so I moved her on ,I heard some more down by the horse pond so I made my way down the hill and found another 10 including the bull some were at the blue barrel others were drinking in the pond the ones from the top of the hill followed me down and joined the rest at the barrel and pond ,as I was walking along the track at the north side of the pond a cow came out of the regrowth at the eastern end of the pond closely followed by the bull ,I stopped walking so did he, he had a good look at me then followed the cow this makes a total of 30 today norman
