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 26 October 

    All seen by the ford gate. Two were standing quietly chewing the cud. “Billy no mates” was standing between two trees doing not a lot of anything and looking quite forlorn. Is he ok?

    All 3 together on the edge of the wooded area near the ford gate again. All looked healthy but still very inactive - not even eating today.

    All three found near the gate at the south end of the site. Cleared a tree down across the fence near the corral.

    Tuesday 19th

     Found all three by the gate near the ford at 3.00pm. They seem to be frequenting this area. Standing in the trees looking morose and inactive. When I went through the gate Teasel (088) came up to me as though she thought I had some food or was she just bored and wanted to say hallow? She looked very clean and healthy - plenty of flies around - but no problems. The other two stayed standing in the trees maybe sheltering from a quite strong wind.

     Sunday 17 October

    I went looking for them on Friday, Saturday and today but have not seen them. They are probably in the deep undergrowth. However I was lucky enough to see a deer at close hand.

    Wednesday, 13 October 2021

    Wednesday 13th

     All 3 around the ford gate. Looking very docile and miserable. Weather not bad so why? Maybe just chilling out and chewing cud. Caledonian (075) laying, Teasle (088) just standing and stared at me looking miserable, Evan (160 - Billy-no-mates) sulking in the background doing nothing. They all seem fit and well but a bit quiet.



    All well

     Also saw the 3 up by the ford gate, in the shade out of the sun. All looked well.

     Wednesday 13 October

    All seen lying beneath the trees near the ford gate,  chewing the cud.

    Monday, 11 October 2021

    Monday 11th October

    All three spread out along the fence/Gelvert stream line. Viewed from the other side of the fence on the main path as impossible to get to them! All eating for England.

    Glad to see that someone has found them today as I can't make it due to car trouble🙄
