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!

    Went to Caesars camp today but no sign of the cattle. Are they still there, do they cope well with this weather?

      Hello Nick,

      the cattle are still on site and the breeds that we use (Aberdeen Angus) are more than able to cope with this weather when you consider theuir name suggests where they are used to living. They are called hardy breed which means they are thick coated to deal with cold and are able to eat rough grasses and scrub which your more European breeds would not. In other words they are fine but just need a little bit of a pick me up every now and then.
