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 couldn't find them either.

    no sign!

    Hi all,

    Just to introduce myself, my name is Vicky Russell and I am a trainee working with the Grazing Team for the coming year. You are bound to see me out and about so please do come over and say hello.

    Lucy was showing me around the site today. We checked the south fence line which I understand can be a hotspot for fence damage and we did find a little repair was required. We also had a good scout around for the cow and her calf, particularly in areas that you have had sightings recently, but with no success! Perhaps I will have more success when I have become more familiar with their habbits and patterns.

    Hopefully I will have the opportunity to meet you soon when we are out and about.

    Best wishes

    Vicky
