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!

    Tuesday 25th November - All 6 Ponies Seen

    The ponies were browsing the gorse on the south side of Brock's Hill at 1215 today, some close to the track and others deep in the gorse.  

    The are all well and looking good, apart from all the bits of gorse, burrs and bracken they have managed to accumulate in their manes.

    On the top of Brock's Hill, on the cleared patch that looks out to the north, I came across a collection of old blanks, mostly spent but one or two live (with no firing pin marks).  


    They may have been collected together by the military or the clearance contractors. I'm not sure what the disposal protocol would be for so many but they are exposed where ponies could step upon them.
