Traditionally the welfare team at a festival or event cares for people who are distressed. In many cases this may be due to misuse of alcohol or drugs when people may want a safe sheltered non-judgemental place where they can be supported until they are feeling better.
There is so much more. At a festival, the TTK welfare team will help people who have lost their tent or clothing due to wet weather. We give emotional support people who have suffered an abuse. The list of ways we can help is as longs as your arm.
