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!

    Well...they were definately challenging me this morning lol. Walked round for over an hour before I spotted Melody (being white was helpful) who was on her own at 9:20 in H7 just off the gate/path. I then spent another 10 mins before I found the others together at 9:30 coming out of the bracken on the edge of F6. All 4 had heads down eating the grass.  All looked fine apart from they looked a little damp with all the rain we had but no issues that I could see.

    All in H12 at 7:50am, eating the grass at the side of the road/track.  Got so close I could have touched them (don't worry Elliot, I didn't lol).  All looked great, no flies although it was a little chilly this morning, I expect thats why.  I didn't see any problems with eyes either.

    Cattle found and gates upgraded

    Hello all, The four girls were all relaxing out on the open heather heath which was lovely to see as the sun was setting. They were all good and their eyes were nice and clear. I made some repairs to the gate down near to the trough. It should help it close a bit better and latch properly. I then replaced the broken sign on the gate next to the cattle grid in the car park and also adjusted the gate so this also latches properly now. Nice to see the site again....I miss getting out there as much as I used too! Elliott

    All good but not seen 114 up
