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!

    New arrival (rather unexpected!)




    Hi all,

    Keith and I were at the site today and managed to locate cow and calf in the whale tail (my first sighting of them finally!). Much to our surprise a new born calf trotted out of the vegetation behind mum! It appears that we now have a family of three! We suspect he was born either last night or the night before. We will inform the livestock owners of this new development and see where to go from here! Meanwhile the new calf looks very perky and is steady on his feet. He allowed me to get close enough to get a quick photo but was a little wary which is probably a good thing.

    Thanks

    Vicky
