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!

    phone call from concerned walker

    Hello
    I received a phone call on Sunday morning from a concerned member of the public. He was worried that one of the cattle had escaped. He saw it at Q25, between Bricksbury Hill and The Cresent.
    I went out to have a look, but could not find any cattle out of the fence. I confirmed the location with the caller.
    I suspect that he was mistaken because the fence is difficult to see in this area (covered with bracken) and it is an unusual place to see them.
    However, if you do walk in this area, please keep an eye out and get in touch if you see anything unusual!

    Many thanks
    Alex
