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!

    Monday 13th June - All 27 seen - cow 217 needs rescuing though

    Concerned that cow 217 hadn't been seen again today and that he appears to be off on his own, which is very unusual, I decided to do an extra look this evening.

    Yearlings 238, 241, 244, 247, 252, 255 and 257 were all cooling down by having a paddle in the Horse Pond at 17:30 this evening.  They were having a great time, swishing their tails and causing water to splash everywhere.  Older cows 21 and 30 plus yearling 245 were watching on but stayed very much on dry land.  After coming out, all ten went into the trees to shelter from the sun and the flies.

    A mixed group of five older cows, nine youngsters and the other two yearlings were all found in the trees in the area around ///beaks.zest.increment at the Shell Garage end of the site an hour later.  They were all either lying down relaxing, stood chewing their cud, or were busy grazing.

    I had all but admitted defeat in trying to find cow 217 when I eventually caught sight of him from afar!  As I made my way towards him, it became apparent he was in the fenced-off area of Caesar's caused by the elevated levels of heavy metals.  Anyway, he was fine, and he came over to say hello before going back to grazing around ////entertainer.cries.surfed.  I had a careful look around to see if I could find a broken fence or some other way of getting him out with no success.  In the end, I called HIWWT and spoke to Harry, who said they'd come and get him out tomorrow.  Please blog to let us know he got out and that he's OK.

    All the cows were good today.
