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!

    195 taken off

    Saw 16 today numbers 20,21, 23, 33, 35, 147, 155, 165, 168, 176, 177, 194, 195, 198 and the one with no ear tags. The other three could not be found. 195 was on its own and looking very lethargic and showed little interest in the nuts we tried to feed it. Had a call later reporting it lying down and bleeding, so went back to Caesar's tp where we last saw it and it was still there and we witnesses a bloody discharge from the back end. Ned turned up and we could not get it off the ground so called the vet. He thought it was either acorn poisoning or a tick born disease so we managed to get it into trailor and Ned took it back to farm. We had had reports of it being attacked by dogs, but could not substantiate this as their were no wounds. So only 18 on site now.
