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 21st January - All 19 seen

    Cow 214 and steers 219, 220, 228, 270 and 271 were spread out grazing in the pasture opposite their favourite Sandy Hill corner at 10:00 this morning.  They were all rather damp, but quickly dried out in the windy conditions.  The others were all buried deep in the gorse bushes behind where the first group were grazing.  They were rather tricky to get at today.  A few came out and said hello before going back into the bushes to eat some more.

    Cow 234 plus steers 227 and 230 were found grazing on the slope of Sandy Hill around ///wells.wants.essay at 10.45.  A number of the cows started to emerge from the gorse bushes, stop off at their favourite corner to eat some grass, before wandering along and joining these three.  By 11:35 they were all munching on heather on the slope of Sandy Hill around ///tech.shelf.kilt.

    Cows 72 and 215 plus steers 30, 217 and 222 were the last to emerge from the gorse bushes at 11:20.  Cow 30 turned around and went straight back in.  The other four went and stood on their favourite corner, where they started to relax and chew their cud.  Youngster 217 soon lay down.  It didn't look like they were in any rush to walk along and join the others.

    The cows were all good today.
