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!

    Wedesday 13 and Thursday 14

    Hello
    As you will be aware, we are now feeding the cattle hay. 7 of them are hanging around the field gate behind Bricksbury Hill Road (25P) and the other 5 are over at 7S. This is where we are feeding them and they will probably hang around there until we stop.
    They are currently getting about 1/2 a bale of hay a day each, as well as the gorse and heather that they can get to, but some of them are looking a bit skinny so we will be putting out some high concentrate feed for them and possibly remove them if they don't start improving.
    In addition, one of the black ones at 25P has a mild case of New Forest Eye, causing it's eye to be a bit milky. The farmer has treated it, but it is worth keeping a look out for.
    Thanks for all your help during this busy time.
    Alex
