Events Wellbeing Limited has been developed from over 20 years experience of supporting welfare at festivals, live music events and gigs across the UK and Ireland, including children’s welfare.  We can provide 24/7 welfare cover for any event and we will tailor each support package to your requirements, specifications and budgets.

Our team of dedicated volunteers are experienced in supporting people who may be vulnerable due to substance use, mental health, assault, sexual assault, domestic abuse or those just needing a quiet space to sit.  Our volunteers are fully DBS/PVG/Garda checked and many have professional backgrounds in social care, drug and alcohol services, mental health, probation, community support services, housing and clinical settings.  All volunteers receive relevant training to ensure they can fully support those in need at festivals and events.

In addition to a welfare service provision (The Welfare Crew), Events Wellbeing Limited offers safeguarding leadership, accessibility services, lost property services, eviction and gate support, accessibility support, drug and alcohol training and consultancy around wellbeing, welfare and drugs and alcohol.

Events Wellbeing is fully insured for all services and is registered with the Information Commissioner’s Office.  Copies of our health and safety policy, equality and diversity statement, data protection policy, sustainability policy and safeguarding policy can be shared with event coordinators prior to events.
