Red Frogs Crews supply
parties with drug and alcohol free recharge zones in the heart of the party
action. These recharge zones are stationed close to the main dance area
providing water, icy poles, donuts and frogs to your party goers. This ensures
the re-hydration of students while they dance and drink, which is our primary
harm minimization strategy. In this chill-out zone we can arrange for chairs /
bean bags / benches for students to chill-out if needed during the party.
In Australia & New Zealand we
are now the largest support network to university on-campus parties. Along with
the popularity of our service with students themselves, party organisers
appreciate what we do because we help minimize drug and alcohol related
incidents and thus help them provide a higher level duty of care to attendees.
Run by Students
90% of all chill-out zones
provided are run and lead by, in most cases, students from your local university
and/or residential college. We find local students understand local cultures,
protocols and policies of the organising committee and/or residential college.
Your eyes and ears
The chill out zone is
supervised at all times and also provides a referral service to party organisers
for any students that may be in distress from excessive alcohol consumption or
health issues. Our team becomes your eyes and ears in the party for any
potential critical situations or circumstances.
Supporting non-drinkers and
under-agers
Our message to university
students is the same to the 75,000 school leavers in which we support with 1800
volunteers nationally which is "you don't have to get smashed off your face to
have a good time". This is communicated NON-VERBALLY and NON-CONFRONTATIONALLY
through demonstrated role modelling by their peers in having a great time and
going hard without the need for alcohol or other substances. Having the presence
of other non-drinking students in the parties provides more support for
under-agers or other non-drinkers who feel the pressure to drink to feel like
they are a part of the university celebrations. Our program provides support to
those students who choose not to drink and feel pressured to drink even though
they don’t want to. We also support those who do drink (often in excess)
by looking out for them in the chill-out and general party zone.
