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 16th May - All 3 seen

    Steer 75 was resting and chewing his cud near ///amps.madder.amending at 17:45 this afternoon, in the pasture northeast of Brock's Hill. About 55 metres to the north, steer 257 was relaxing in the shade beneath a clump of trees. Although he was being pestered by a lot of flies, he seemed happy for me to sit beside him and help swish them away.

    Steer 178 was grazing a little further east, enjoying plenty of long grass and leaves from the silver birch trees. He soon took a break and wandered over for a long neck and head rub, before returning to his grazing.

    Around 18:15, the boys got up and began grazing. Steers 75 and 178 joined up and slowly made their way back towards Brock's Hill, while steer 257 wandered east into the swampy area to enjoy the long grass and leaves.

    I left them at 18:45, with all three peacefully grazing. Steer 257 was slowly making his way back towards the others, who were still edging their way towards Brock’s Hill.

    The cows were all good today.
