There is a First Aid tent in the arena, staffed with medical professionals, including doctors, nurses and paramedics, who can provide confidential consultations at any time throughout the duration of the festival.

Welfare
Located next to the First Aid Tent, TTK Welfare will be on hand for wellbeing advice and support. Whether you’re feeling in distress, have over indulged or simply want a place to chill out, away from the crowds, our Welfare Tent is a safe haven for festival attendees. They can also advise on issues including drug and alcohol abuse, safe sex, addiction, exhaustion & domestic issues.

Sensory Calm Space
Diverse UK are joining us this year with their Sensory Calm Space. They aim to provide a safe, low-level stimulation and recalibration zone for those on the Autistic Spectrum or for those who need a place to have a moment of calm, rather than having to leave the festival. The tent will be located next to medics & welfare.
