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!

    Small  group (3) lying in hollow just below Horse Pond an hour ago.

    I note that the notice warning about nesting birds at access opposite Shell filling station is not visible because the top fastening has torn away.  I also do not see the logic of posting one such notice when neither of the gates I have been through this morning, Cranmore Lane and The Crescent, do not have them.

      Hi Ivan
      Many thanks for your blog. Just to confirm, there should be notices on every entrance point onto the site. If there are ones missing then this is due to them being removed by members of the public as acts of vandalism.
      These signs are not put out by us but rather by the wardens who patrol sites within the Thames Basin Heaths Special Protection Area (SPA) with the aim of engaging with site users and educating them about the need to avoid disturbance to groundnesting birds, e.g. by keeping dogs to paths.
      We will contact the SPA wardens to let them know that these signs need replacing.
      Kind regards
      Susanne
