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!

    UPDATE - COWS MOVED TO CORRAL SECTION

    Cows all fine but the Grazing was getting pretty sparse in canal section. Moved them across, much to their delight, and hoping for some rain ASAP. Fence checked and fine. Water level is low but flowing. Checked with Grazing team that the level is adequate and they confirmed its fine at the moment but worth keeping an eye on it incase it show signs of drying up.

    Thanks all,
