Over the past few weeks our residents have spent time in Ladbroke Square Garden, the community cafe in St.John’s church and attended another free Lunchtime Concert in St. Marylebone Parish church.

🎪✨ Festival season is ON — and so is the mission to survive it in one piece. Here’s your ultimate guide to staying healthy while living your best glittery life:

💧 Hydration hacks: Water > warm cider. Add electrolytes, freeze your bottles, and sip between sips.
👟 Protect your feet: Dance hard, but don’t let blisters ruin your vibe. Comfy shoes + plasters = lifesavers.
🍗 Avoid food poisoning: If it smells dodgy, it is dodgy. Trust your gut before it betrays you.
🔒 Safe s*x: Pack protection. Consent is s*xy. So is being prepared.
☀️ Sun damage: SPF is your BFF. Reapply like your skin depends on it (because it does).
🧠 Panic attack plan: Overwhelmed? Step away, breathe deep, text a mate. You’re not alone.
🎧 Protect your hearing: Earplugs = cool. Tinnitus = not.
🚽 Make sure you poo: Festival food + dehydration = constipation nation. Fibre up and don’t hold it in.
💥 Your body is your festival ticket — treat it like VIP.
👉 Tag a mate who needs this checklist and save this post for your packing prep!
