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!

    visited today at 6pm

    All three came over to greet me by the groups of pines in the heath field, 101 seemed quite moody today for some reason.but they all seemed well,the rain had chased away the flies too so some relief. X
    Visited at 1300 hrs today.  Found Rosemary and Kitkat in H8 cudding under the holly.  No sign of Lola; but found her by the trough (which is OK) looking lost.  Took her up to join the other 2, that by then were in D6.  All 3 are fit and well, if a bit bothered by flies.

    Visited 10.30 this morning. Army training with gunfire and smoke around J6/K6. Not very appropriate with public, dog walkers and cows nearby!! Found cows at I3/J3 near railway line. Quite happy grazing, not bothered by gunfire ( about 300 to 400 yards away). All 3 moving in and around bushes grazing on new grass. No sign of any injuries or problems.

    Saw all 3 near south east entrance.

    Looking they're usual whiter than white selves. No problems. Lovely day for it. Trough checked and on.

    visited today at 11.20am

    All three cows grazing happily just up from the water trough on the field side of the path. Their tummy are looking nice and round and full. All seems fine and peaceful. X
    Just to update.....I visit the girls usually twice a week, but forget to blog! Sorry.
    All looking good although one has a mark front "nearside".  Looks like a small puncture wound?  Don't know which is which. She's the one with the black socks!

    Visit Sunday @ 4:30pm All's well.

    Found the threesome not far from the the car park gate  (near railway bridge) (G5/G6), all looking healthy and grazing on the new growth along the heath. Gave them a good inspection today, nothing to report however as they are all looking in pretty good shape. Mike and Ellee.

    visited yesterday at 4.30 and today at 3.50

    All the cows happily grazing it all soo green now so they should pile the weight on. Today they are all near the cluster of pines in the middle ish of the heath field. Yesterday they were more towards the right corner but near. X
    The girls were in D6 today.  All well.   The trough is OK too.  I also have a collection of "Dont feed the Cows" signs in my car.  They have fallen off gates.  Next week sometime I will go back and replace them from gates that are missing them. Not sure if someone is pulling them off or they are just coming loose from their staples.

    Viewed today 2.00 pm. Very heavy overnight rain so ground is wet, large puddles and generally soggy. light rain still at 2.00 pm. Found all 3 cows together laying down and looking quite contented chewing cud in the open at L6. Left them laying. Concerned for  Rosemary, she appears to have a large scar (about 9 in long) on the rear left flank - bare skin showing. Not sure if very wet hair is simply matting and showing skin beneath but would like second opinion.
