Emergency 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!

All 3 had wandered to undergrowth canal side right at end of field. 114 standing for a while, udder still slightly swollen but she seemed ok. Then joined the other 2 who were lying down. Minimal flies.

Found all 3 lying down at ///abacus.conga.refreshed
114's collar emitted a little tune which made her get up! Not sure what that means, (battery?), but that enabled me to see the enlarged teat mentioned before. Otherwise all fine and not so many flies now.
The other 2 collars have just sung to me too!
