As well as performances by Captain Fantastic, MindFest will feature live music, stalls, food vendors, hair braiding, a circus act, ice creams, football activities, jewellery, a tarot card reader, glitter tattoos and much more! All donations and a proportion of the proceeds from stalls will be split equally between Herts Mind Network and Samaritans who provide help and support for those who are struggling. Mind and other charities attending will offer information for anyone who may need it.
MindFest is the brain child of organiser Daisy Pringle she says: “There are more than 720,000 people who unfortunately pass away due to their mental health each year, that is nearly 14,000 a week - this is something I want to help change.
“It costs nothing to be kind and this is why I want to create a day where people can not only receive information and support if needed, but also where they can forget their worries, stress and enjoy a day full of music, laughter and fun. We are delighted to have Captain Fantastic on board for the day to add magic to the event.”
