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 16th March - All 25 seen - steer 222 had some blood on his front left ankle

    Steers 20, 33, 217, 219, 220, and 228 were happily grazing in the sunshine near ///hush.hazel.cuts at the Shell garage end of the site at 09:25 this morning. Nearby, British Whites 214 and 227 were munching on gorse and heather on the higher ground to the southwest. Cow 72, along with steers 230, 270, and 271, were deep in the gorse bushes to the west but slowly emerged onto the track near ///bronzes.vowed.smoke to say hello and enjoy some back rubs. All twelve were happy, relaxed, and looking well.

    After a while, seven of the steers gradually wandered off toward the water tower. By 10:20, the remaining five—cows 72 and 214, along with steers 227, 230, and 271—gathered near ///bronzes.vowed.smoke, where they started to relax and chew their cud in the sunshine.

    At 10:50, I caught up with the seven steers just as they reached the path on the north side of James Bond Pond. They wandered east and were soon joined by steers 21, 30, 1626, and 1640 near ///sling.pizza.bulge. These four had been grazing in the pasture to the north but stepped down to greet their friends and enjoy a refreshing drink from the pond. 

    After a short while, all eleven climbed back up the bank into the pasture, where they joined the remaining nine cattle, who were happily grazing in the heather. All twenty were content and healthy as they ate in the sunshine. By 11:20, some cattle began gathering near ///worms.baseless.hulk, where they settled down to chew their cud. Sussexes 210, 212, 1396, and 1640 soon lay down in the heather to the south.

    Youngster 222 had some blood on his front left ankle, but there was no visible injury. He was otherwise fine and happily enjoyed some head scratches while resting in the sun. Older steer 35's left ankle showed no sign of the previous scratch, and cow 940’s scrape looked much the same as yesterday.

    The cows were all good today.
