Welcome to the Long Valley Lookers' Blog: Wednesday 27th December

Emergency Procedure

If you need to report an emergency to us such as injured or escaped livestock or damaged infrastructure please follow this procedure:

Call the office on 01256 381190.
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.
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!

Wednesday 27th December - All 9 seen

The ponies were all grazing in the south-western corner of site at 11:40 this morning. They were all enjoying lots of crunchy gorse. The ponies were all rather wet, but were happy and relaxed. They all wandered over to say hello. Around noon, a particularly noisy family out on the main path seemed to spook the ponies, causing them all to scarper into the trees at the far south-west corner. They quickly came back out and started to graze again. They all appeared calm and relaxed again when I left them around 12:20.

The ponies were all good today.
