Don't feel under pressure to try anything you're not sure about It's not a great idea to experiment with drugs in new settings where there are large crowds of people - the drugs are more likely to have a bad effect if you are feeling stressed or disorientated.
If you do decide to take drugs, don't buy from people you don't know as there is an even greater chance that you won't know what you're getting.
Remember that drugs can harm you and are illegal.
Drink-spiking can and does happen Don't accept alcoholic drinks from people you don't know and don't leave your drink out of your sight.
Mixing alcohol and drugs will also make the effects of both more unpredictable.
If you do take drugs, make sure you stay with your mates and tell them exactly what you have taken If you do start to feel unwell get yourself to a first aid point as soon as you can.
Take a water bottle with you, especially when the sun is shining You can fill it for free from tap points dotted around festival sites. If you are taking ecstasy or other dance drugs and moving around a lot you risk overheating and dehydration.
You can reduce the risks by sipping no more than a pint of water or non-alcoholic fluid every hour.
Driving If you plan to drive to the festivals remember that mixing drugs and driving can be dangerous: drugs can affect a driver's judgement, co-ordination, control of the vehicle, and can lead to severe tiredness and the risk of falling asleep at the wheel.
