Pooh-tisics

28 Jun 2003

This year, you can’t go 10 minutes without being reminded about health, sanitation and hygiene at the festival. Whether it’s frank and blatant posters plastered all over the festering, over used toilets (believe me if the stench doesn’t get you, the rancid pooh facts outside on boards about what will potentially happen if you don’t wash your hands will!) to the eye catching, larger than life, walking talking brown turd complete with swarming flies. The message is clear the importance of clean water and sanitation is something that most of us may take for granted but Wateraid (one of the three main charities supported by Glastonbury Festival) is dedicated to helping some of the worlds poorest countries, saving millions of people. What Wateraid is highlighting is a very serious issue and good on them. With all of these messages in your face I think everyone (especially me) will be washing our hands.
