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!

    Vicious black staffie charged at cows and my wife and I in H11 at 1100 hrs today.  Seen off by Lola, and my wife with her stick, facing up.  Owners right away across the area - with no possibility to control dog - and we could not get to them before they departed, thankfully with their dog as it ran off.  Cows (and wife!) all OK.  Cows browsing gorse and bramble.  Kit Kat's neck still got the odd, small bare patches.

    1. Hi Alan, that sounded like quite the ordeal.. I was hoping to ring you this week about this but I'm afraid I've literally not had the chance. I'm very glad it turned out ok in the end, and frustrated that this has happened here after no incidents for so long. I will be in touch.

    Hi All,  We've moved the 3 cattle down the track to Pondtail now.  Thanks again for all your help keeping an eye on them.  Best wishes  ...
