About this Event
Many of us are likely familiar with the concept of set and setting when thinking about psychedelic harm reduction and creating a safe container. But what happens when the container is a field, it's 3am, and someone's had a very interesting evening?
This won't be a lecture but an interactive discussion, guided by whatever's on people's minds on the day. Come with questions, real-life examples of a time PsyCare support might have helped, or ideas on how that kind of support could extend beyond the festival.
Bring your curiosity, leave your assumptions at the door.
PsyCare UK (psycareuk.org) is a registered charity that provides welfare and harm reduction services at music festivals and events throughout the UK and internationally, and has been operating for over 10 years. We provide a compassionate and sensitive welfare service that meets the needs of all festival goers but we specialise in managing the psychedelic crises.
We recognise that psychedelic experiences can have profound effects on people and therefore that difficult psychedelic experiences must be handled with special care and consideration. We have developed a unique skill-set that enables us to effectively manage these challenging experiences in a way that minimises unnecessary hospitalisation or Medic*tion, whilst giving the individual the best possible opportunity to learn and grow from the experience.
