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!

    So its official. 4 left on Gelvert, 30 on caesar's. It only took 3 hours..

    Thanks to Alan and Jo's numbers from last Wednesday I managed to at last find them all. I didn't find every one of them this round mind, but between Wednesdays data and todays its a full house!

    Caesar's lot were in 4 herds today, which included 1 herd of 3 down in the wetter areas near the covered reservoir. A larger herd up Sandy Hill, and the other 2 herds between the sandy area (Old pavilion end) and scrub near the middle.

    The below gate left wide open (thankyou Jill) was not like this when we were touring around last Wednesday. The problem here is that there is zero gate furniture on the slamming post so it must have been a chain and padlock job, clearly a contractor has forgot to put it back! Got onto MOD warden Steve Plaine (while S Ashwood is on hols). he will email them to ensure this doesn't happen again. I have roped up and red and white taped it for the time being. I can't put a lock on it anyway, not MOD.

    I will blog this on Gelvert too but I had a shock at first as I saw them on the opposite side of the fence to the fishing hut! Oh nooooo.. Thankfully its actually open to the rest of Gelvert back there and not a breech in a fence.

    So thanks to Jill, this gate was indeed left wide open!!

    The 'Ohhhh noooo' moment as I saw them through the fishing hut fence!

    Captured!
