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!

    Sunday 26th March - All 17 seen

    Youngsters 213 and 235 plus older cow 940 were found at ///duties.sourced.magma at 11:35 this morning.  They were walking at pace towards the far end of Longbottom.  They paused for a short while before wandering into the woods.  Sadly, the cows were soaking and looking rather sorry for themselves.

    The six other older cows were found grazing in the area around ///gilding.purified.puff about twenty minutes later near to the Shell garage.  They were all munching away happily and were a lot drier than the first three.

    The other eight youngsters were all found in the area around ///stapled.landed.evoke at 12:10.  They were all busy munching on gorse, some buried deep in the bushes.  Youngster 230 was the first to lie down, relax and chew his cud at 12:30.  The others looked like they'd be joining him soon.

    Walked back to where I found the six older cows, and they had been joined by cows 213, 235 and 940 by 12:45.  Cows 20, 33 and 72 were standing chewing their cud while the others were eating gorse.  They were all drying out.

    The cows were all good today.
