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!

    Attack by dog

    Hello
    Last night (about 5.30pm) we recieved a call from a walker on Caesar's Camp. She had witnessed a dog attacking one of the cattle, which had been injured around the muzzle. The farmer and I went up there to find her.
    Thankfully she is not badly injured, and we were happy to leave her on site. She has cuts to the nose and mouth, and blood on her muzzle.
    The police have been called and have visited the offending dog owner.
    The other 11 were with her at the 'feed station'.. All looked fine.
    As ever, please do get in touch with us if you have any concerns or with the police if it is a similar emergency.
    Many thanks
    Alex
