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 18th December - All 19 seen - cow 234 was good, steer 227 has a small scratch above his right eye

    Steers 20 and 230 were lying down, relaxing and chewing their cud on their favourite Sandy Hill corner at 12:30.  Older cows 30, 72 and 940 were standing close by.  Cow 215 was busy munching on gorse on the opposite side of the path.  They were all happy and relaxed.  Steers 21, 35 and 219 were a bit further east along the hill around ///tracks.labels.binds.  Steer 219 was happily munching on heather, while the older boys were in the gorse bushes.  They were all good.

    The other ten cows were grazing in the area around ///steps.pocket.hurry at 13.10.  Several were standing in a large pool of water, eating gorse.  They took a drink when they were done.  The others were eating from the neighbouring bushes.  Cow 234 was good again today.  She came wading through the water to say hello before disappearing into a gorse bush to eat.  Steer 227 appears to have caught himself on a rogue piece of gorse, and has a small red scratch a couple of inches above his right eye.  He was absolutely fine, though, and it didn't stop him coming over to say hello and get his ear rub.  This group were all looking well.

    The cows were all good today.
