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!

    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.

    All good but not seen 114 up

     Two of them up and munching today, still haven’t seen 114 on her feet. She was repeatedly licking her front left leg and no amount of gentl...
