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!

    Friday 7th May - Bedtime at Bramshot

    I swear they know that I need the exercise. I got to site later than usual, about 5pm. It took me 90 minutes to find them! They were all tucked up in bed in a little clearing at J8. Although all sat down and very sleepy, they looked well. 

    Trough good.

    Have a good weekend,

    Thursday 6th - Social distancing

     Location : Thanks.Strategy.spouse (D15)


    Ran across the Heath at around 9am this morning and found all three of them in different locations.

    There was a lot of mooing but all were generally happy to be approached and busy hoovering up any green leaves they could find. 








    Wednesday 5th

     late blog! walked yesterday and covered most of site. No sign of cattle - hiding somewhere in gorse?

    Trough working OK

    A tree has fallen across the fence at E7 and wire is broken. Tree debris is blocking the hole so no immediate worry of escaping cattle.

    Saturday 1st May



     Very happy cows all munching on leaves (and carrots found on the floor, I hope this is okay?) - Evan was licking his front leg when we approached. They seemed fine and healthy (and hungry) 

    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...
