Love Saves The Day

We catch up with our Festival Team to find out how they spent their weekend spreading harm reduction messages at Love Saves The Day in Eastville Park.

We had a really good time at Love Saves The Day. Our Festival Team had lots of positive engagement all throughout the weekend, talking to the festival-goers and giving out practical harm-reduction advice and resources. We even talked to a few potential new volunteers about how they could get involved in working with us at future festivals.

This year it was great being so close to The Loop, who were helping spread the harm-reduction message with their free drug testing service. Being only a few stalls away from them meant that as soon as they detected especially dangerous pills, we were able to help spread that information in real time, helping to warn festival-goers of any increased risks.
