Electric Picnic revellers wanted condoms and ecstasy advice

Demands for free condoms and advice about the drug, ecstasy, were the main concerns of young people at Electric Picnic’s first harm-reduction service for drug-users.

The Ana Liffey Drug Project provided the service, at the invitation of the organisers, Festival Republic, in the Welfare Tent in the Jimi Hendrix campsite last weekend.

Ana Liffey said 70 people — split roughly 70/30 between men and women — came to it seeking advice.
