Festival season is upon us! Not sure what you should take?
Here are 5 essentials you need to take to your next festival 🎶

☀️ Suncream - Nothing kills the festival vibe like being burnt to a crisp on day one!
Apply SPF regularly, especially if you're spending hours outdoors. Future you will thank you.

💦 Reusable Water Bottle - Walking, dancing, and hot weather can leave you dehydrated before you even realise it. Make use of free water points available around the festival and stay hydrated.

⚡️ Portable Charger - A dead phone can turn a fun festival day into a stressful one because it’s your, ticket, map, way to contact friends, and way to call for help. Keep your phone charged with a portable charger.

🍬 Condoms - Even if you're not expecting a festival romance, it's always better to be prepared! Being prepared helps protect against STIs and unplanned pregnancy.
Better to be safe than sorry!

ℹ️ Emergency Info - Saying "I'll remember it" isn't always a reliable plan, so save these in your phone: Emergency contact, friends' phone numbers, meeting point details, festival welfare and medical locations.

Remember! The safest festival essential is looking out for each other!
Check in on your mates, trust your gut, and don't be afraid to ask for help if something doesn't feel right.
If you need support when your at a festival, you can speak to the festival welfare team, festival staff or security.

Did you know that many men still face barriers to seeking support, whether that's around mental health, s*xual health, relationships or overall wellbeing?🤔

Back in June for Men's Health Week, SASH was proud to be part of the Men's Wellbeing Event in Lyric Square, Hammersmith, where local organisations, health professionals and community groups came together to encourage open conversations about men's physical and mental health 📢

💬 While Men's Health Week shines an important spotlight on the challenges men face, these conversations shouldn't end when the week does. Continuing to talk openly, share information and signpost available services throughout the year, we can help reduce stigma and make it easier for people to access the support they need!!

At SASH, we're committed to keeping those conversations going every day, because everyone is entitled to good mental and s*xual wellbeing💙
If you would like support, information or advice about your s*xual health and wellbeing, SASH is here to help. Visit our website for more information, including how to access our service, at www.sashlondon.org

⚽ As the world comes together to enjoy the excitement of tonight's World Cup match of England vs Argentina, it's important to remember that for many, major sporting events can be a difficult time.

Research has shown that incidents of domestic abuse can increase around major football tournaments. It doesn't matter if your team win, lose, or if the match results in a draw - there is NEVER an excuse for abuse, violence, intimidation, or controlling behaviour.

If you or someone you know is experiencing domestic abuse, support is available and you are not alone. We've added some helplines you can contact below:

❗️ Black men are twice as likely to develop prostate cancer and twice as likely to die from the disease. In SASH’s Your Health is Your Wealth film about prostate cancer awareness, SASH interviewed seven men and women with African and/or Caribbean heritages, asking what needs to happen to increase prostate cancer awareness and improve confidence to seek healthcare services.

🎞️ We’ll be showcasing clips from the film focused on barriers Black men experience to gain information, talk about prostate health and when seeking healthcare services, and discussing what needs to happen to improve access and raise awareness of prostate cancer.

👥 Our expert panel includes: Ally Fogg (Chair of the Association for Male Health and Wellbeing), Elijah Amooti (Independent Health Promotions Consultant), Errol McKellar MBE (from the Errol McKellar Foundation) and Joseph Olubondun (Turning Point Colleague and film participant).

💚 Whether you are a professional working in health, community services, or simply someone passionate about improving health inclusion, this online event is an opportunity to listen, learn and take action. The event is open to all and we encourage anyone who is passionate about improving health inclusion to attend.
