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 27th April - All 26 seen

    The seven Sussex cattle were back together grazing in the thicket in the area around ///bless.army.tour near Hungry Hill at 09:40 this morning.  They were all happy, relaxed and looking well.  Steer 197 and cow 211 were their usual friendly selves and came and said hello and received ear rubs.
     
    Steers 20, 21 and 227 plus cows 72 and 940 were spread out grazing in the area around ///dunes.plums.rush at 10:00.  They were all happy and relaxed.  Youngster 227 came and said hello and received a long back rub.  He had a red tick bite on his right hand side.  He wouldn't tell me where he was hiding on Thursday 😃.

    The other fourteen cattle were found mostly grazing around ///raves.caused.bridge at 10:45.  Some were still a little damp from the earlier rain.  Steers 33 and 217 were standing, chewing their cud.  Steer 35 was having a big scratch against a tree behind them.  Steers 219 and 271 plus cow 234 were eating in the thicket to the southwest, but soon came out and said hello.

    The group of fourteen slowly made their way east, ending up in the pasture around ///stand.clinic.twin where they happily munched on the fresh grass.  The three British White girls, cows 214, 215 and 234, were all grazing in the bushes on the other side of the path to the north.   It was really nice to see a large group of the originals back together and happily grazing.  I stayed with them for a while before saying goodbye shortly after 11:30.

    The cows were all good today.
