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!

    16 cattle moved into heath next door

    Hello all.

    I moved 16 cattle onto the Heath to the north of Caesars Camp, known to us as Gelvert catchment Area.

    I hope the two herds learn to acknowledge but avoid one another but I am nervous bearing in mind the last time we tried to run the two herds separately.  

    Depending on how this goes we may need to run them as a single herd, flitting between the two sites as and when we move them, or a single herd grazing both sides at the same time with the fence in between taken down.

    Time will tell.
