<div>Hi, we are a welfare and harm reduction collective founded in Nottingham in late 2023. Run by volunteer first aiders, councilors, chemists, nurses and paramedics based all over the UK, we specialise in providing first aid, harm reduction supplies, substance information and general welfare at "free parties" and legal raves.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We have already raised £1000 that got us through last year. Thank you so much to all that donated, be we are now back to rock bottom after working more than a dozen events. Resonance 26 was especially difficult for us, facing understaffing, assault, harassment and unexpected costs that organisers would not undertake themselves, such as hundreds of pounds in extra water. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>At the moment we are only one of the two collectives safeguarding the underground rave scene in the UK, and as you can imagine, that comes with a lot of responsibilities and costs!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We do not promote or condone substance use, but we are aware that these activities will happen and have happened for years, therefore it is incredibly important that the attendees of these events feel safe.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>These funds will allow us to:
</div>
<ul>
<li><strong>provide life saving drug testing on site (reagent and immunoassay strips)</strong>
</li>
<li>purchase essential and costly elements, such as <strong>walkie</strong> <strong>talkies</strong>, a <strong>kettle</strong>, sick bowls, an upgraded first aid kit, condoms, litter "pickers/grabbers" and much more
</li>
<li>improve our shelter
</li>
<li>provide more training for our members, such as first aid <strong>training</strong>, naloxone training and more
</li>
</ul>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>These services we provide can help reduce substance misuse, fatalities, spread of infectious diseases like Hep C and HIV, and promote positive mental health and support.
</div>
<div>With drug poisoning deaths doubling since 2012, and a concerning increase in "dodgy batches" of misold drugs on the rise (eg. fentanyl and nitazine poisoning), our mission is increasingly important.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Every little penny helps, and if you can't help, sharing our mission around really means the world to us!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>For more information please contact us here or via email at <a href="https://gmail.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">[email redacted]</a>
