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!

    Wednesday 18th March.

    Got out for some site checks today. Found the seven youngsters up on the firebreak on Sandy Hill behind the houses. They're losing condition a bit but not too bad currently. I put a lick out for them there.

    The other nine were all over near the Bourley Road not far from the covered reservoir. I put another lick out there for this lot to go at.

    Quite a few of these older cattle have got some bare patches coming through on their necks. It might be that they are beginning to moult but we'll keep an eye on the situation in case there's a bout of mites coming through.

    I also noticed a few of the larger Shetlands have got some ticks already too.

    Other than that they're good and were really nice and relaxed as usual today.
