Emergency Procedure

If you need to report an emergency to us such as injured or escaped livestock or damaged infrastructure please follow this procedure:

Call the office on 01256 381190.
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.
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 24th August - All 25 seen - Youngster 222 has a head injury

Youngster 222 has an injury to the poll on the left side of his head, possibly from some rough play with a herd mate. Despite this, he was just as friendly as usual, happily coming over for strokes and rewarding me with gentle cuddles. As the wound looked inflamed and a bit raw, I immediately phoned HIWWT and spoke to Grace. After I shared some photos, Grace attended the site and treated the injury with blue antiseptic spray, as well as applying fly spray to help keep the area clean.

Full update to follow.
