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!

    Wednesday 16th August - All 19 seen - fence good

    Youngsters 217 and 219 were grazing on the patch of grass in front of the car park at the fishing hut at 16.35 this afternoon.  They appeared to be enjoying the sunshine.  Steers 33, 222 and 270 were close by standing at the edge of the fishing lake.   Older steer 35 plus youngsters 220 and 230 were busy grazing in the swampy land around ///over.ignore.join a short time later.

    Older steer 21 was by himself, wandering along the path around ///freed.suiting.fiction at 17:00.  He was heading in the direction of the first eight cows.

    Cows 214, 215, 227, 228 and 234 were all lying down together in the area around ///marbles.roaming.etchings at 17:45.   They were all relaxing and chewing their cud.  Cow 940 was lying down, hidden in the bracken at the side of the path a bit further on.  Cow 72 was munching on leaves beside her.  Steer 20 was lying down on the other side of the path from the first five.  He was resting and chewing his cud under a tree, with most of his body buried in the thicket.  Yearling 271 was having a good scratch on a neighbouring tree before he crossed over and lay down beside the group of five.

    Had a good search for the missing older steer 30 in the surrounding area with no luck.  So started to head back to the area where I saw the first nine and found steers 21, 35, 220, 222, 230 and 270 all munching on the long grass around ///stiff.whizzing.gifts at 18:30.   Steers 33, 217, 219 and the missing steer 30 were all grazing together a bit further on around ///drives.grabs.bulletins about ten minutes later.

    The cows were all good today, as was the Beacon Hill Road fence.
