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!

    Saturday 25th November - All 19 seen

    A mixed group of fifteen cows were spread out in the area around ///sized.stray.raft at the Shell Garage end of site at 10:05 this morning.  Most were busy grazing, either eating grass, gorse or heather. Older cow 72 preferred to munch on leaves from the bushes beside the perimeter fence opposite the garage.  Cows 228, 230, and 940 had found a nice spot to relax and chew their cud.  The cows were all happy and didn't seem bothered by the chilly start to the day.

    Steer 30 was found standing, relaxing and chewing his cud in the area around ///garlic.rise.rescuer at 10.40.  Steer 20 was buried deep in the gorse bushes to the west of him.  Steer 21 was grazing a little to the south.  All three were looking well.
      
    That left cow 234, whom I wasn't able to find anywhere.  I searched the area around the three boys, then went around James Bond pond before returning to the first group.  By 11:30, they had gathered in the area around ///regret.lyrics.oasis, where most were standing in the sunshine chewing their cud.  Youngster 228 and older cow 940 were lying down, resting.

    When I returned to the area where the three steers had been earlier, I found cow 234 standing in the sunshine chewing her cud around ///shot.electric.grasp at 11:55.  She had obviously activated stealth mode and had been in the gorse bushes all along 🤣.  Older steer 20 had come out of the gorse bushes and was standing fairly close to her.

    The cows were all good today.
