BASSINTHEGRASS is continuing its partnership with anti-bullying organisation Dolly’s Dream, to raise awareness about the devastating effects of bullying.
Last year was the first time the Territory’s biggest music festival teamed up with an official charity partner. Its success means this year will be bigger and better.
Dolly’s Dream was founded by Kate and Tick Everett from Katherine after the death of their 14-year-old daughter Dolly Everett. Dolly took her own life following ongoing and sustained bullying.
The partnership also helps celebrate Do It For Dolly Day, which this year falls on Friday, 12 May. BASSINTHEGRASS takes place on Saturday, 20 May 2023.
The Dolly’s Dream team will be at BASSINTHEGRASS, where festivalgoers can find out more about what they do, access information on bullying, buy Dolly’s Dream merchandise and experience the new 360 video photo booth.
BASSINTHEGRASS has a strong focus on wellbeing and harm reduction, and the Dolly’s Dream partnership is part of a wider raft of initiatives that includes a harm-reduction group on site to advise how to party safely; Event Champions roaming the festival; multiple St John NT sites; and a ³Ô¹ÏÍøÕ¾ Critical Care and Trauma Response Centre medical facility.
