Know what’s doing the rounds before you go in
This is our live Heads Up feed. We are not here to scare people. We are here to show what is doing the rounds before, during and after festival season. We track the trends, the unpredictability, the dangerous bits and the unknowns, then turn that into something clear, honest and useful.
What this is
A live feed of what we are seeing in testing results and wider harm reduction signals. Not noise. Not drama. Just the bits people should actually know.
What it is not
It is not a green light and it is not a guarantee. One sample never tells the whole story. Things sold under the same name can still be very different.
How to use it
Read it before you go. Share it with your mates. Build testing into your pre-event ritual. Small move. Massive benefit.
WEDINOS result W075994 was submitted as THC vape juice. The sample was found to contain MDMB-4en-PINACA, a synthetic cannabinoid. Sold as THC does not always mean THC.

WEDINOS result W075994 · THC vape juice · Found: MDMB-4en-PINACA
WEDINOS result W075994 was submitted as THC vape juice. The sample was found to contain MDMB-4en-PINACA, a synthetic cannabinoid.
Why it matters: synthetic cannabinoids can be unpredictable and much stronger than people expect. A vape is easy to share at festivals, house parties and afters, which means one dodgy product can affect a whole group fast.
Heads Up: do not trust a vape just because someone says it is THC. Do not share unknown vapes. If someone becomes breathless, has an irregular heartbeat, collapses, becomes confused or cannot be woken properly, get medical help straight away.
If your mate is not right
Heads Up helps people spot risk early. It does not replace action. If your mate is overheating, struggling to breathe, having chest pain, fitting, collapsing, drifting in and out, or cannot be woken properly, get help straight away.
- 1Stay with them and tell staff or call 999 if it is serious.
- 2Be honest about what they may have taken. Medics need facts, not guesswork.
- 3If they are unconscious but breathing, put them in the recovery position.
Why we do Heads Up
We are not here to shout alerts for the sake of it. We are here to show people the truth about what is doing the rounds. The trends. The unpredictability. The dangerous bits. The unknowns.
The aim is simple. Encourage people to test their stuff, plan in advance and make testing part of the ritual. With habit, it becomes a small move with massive benefits.
