  • Keep hydrated! – drink water regularly
  • Wash your hands as often as possible, always after visiting the toilet and before eating.
  • Your own Prescribed Medication – Bring as little as possible to the event. Only bring medicines that you will need. Always remember to bring your asthma inhaler if you have one. Bring basic medicines such as Paracetamol and Ibuprofen.

Basic First Aid:

  • There is a medical centre and an emergency response medical team at this event.
  • If you have called for assistance, please give as exact location on site as you can (perhaps to the nearest landmark such as fairground ride, food outlet or campsite row number) and send someone to signal us when we approach.

Some basic things to do to help someone before help arrives:

  • If someone is bleeding, put something clean on the wound and apply pressure.
  • If someone has a burn, cool with lots of cold water.
  • If they are unconscious, roll them on their side and tilt their head back.
  • If someone is having a seizure, protect their head, but don’t restrain them.
  • If a bone or joint appears broken, keep it still and provide support.
  • If someone is not breathing, start CPR.
  • If someone is having a panic attack, take them somewhere quiet and calm them down by getting them to focus on their breathing.
  • If the patient can walk, it will be quicker to take them to a medical centre.
