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 4th February - All 15 seen - Fire on Caesar's Camp

    There has been a recent fire on Caesar's in the area around ///wants.fairway.laughs.  It was restricted mainly to gorse bushes and was smaller than past fires.  Cows 21, 30, 33, 72, 219, 220 and 940 were all in the remains, munching on chargrilled gorse at 09:50.  Youngster 217 was close by, munching on heather to the south.  Youngster 222 was standing at the front of the burnt bushes, relaxing and chewing his cud.

    Steers 20, 35, 228, 230, 270 and 271 were all a little further north eating gorse in the bushes around ///recur.shields.ideals at 10:10.  They slowly started to come out into the open and say hello.  Judging by the soot on their coats, they had all been in the burnt bushes earlier. The two yearlings stood together, chewing their cud.

    By 10:50, the six boys had wandered down to join up with others.  Several steers wandered over to the area around ///tent.strutted.tides where they all took big drinks of water from the deep puddles.  Ten minutes later, steer 20 went and lay down around ///tasks.hotdog.cabbies.   He was soon joined by steers 217, 220, 222 and 230.  Steer 219 was standing beside them and looked like he was going to lie down soon.  The other nine cows were all back grazing in the burnt bushes.

    The cows were all good today.  I gave them all a good check and they were fine.  They seem to like eating the chargrilled gorse, but I can't imagine it's particularly good for them.
