On march 21 we’re in the middle of Podcasthon charity event. It’s an annual charity event which sees podcasters come together to highlight different organisations, their work, and their impact
Drug use among young people is nothing new, but in recent years it has reached record levels, according to research published in 2022 by youth charity. They found that the number of 16 to 25 year olds taking drugs had increased by 50% since the previous year, reaching one in three.
Despite being illegal, these substances are widely consumed. That’s why some charities and associations have put in place harm reduction programs, to help minimise the risks associated with drug use at parties and festivals. An example of a charity doing that is Psycare UK, who have been operating for over a decade and offer services at events of all sizes.
What are the main risks in party environments? How can these risks be reduced? How can you play a role in creating a more responsible party scene? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!
