Joshua Green - Event Operations, Mushroom Group
"Dear Claudine, Joseph, and Red Frogs,
The history of the Mushroom Group dates back to 1972. Over the past five decades, it has evolved from the foundational Mushroom Records and Mushroom Music Publishing to a collective of two dozen specialist brands, focusing on live concerts and events.
Since 2012, we have had the privilege of working closely with Red Frogs, a reputable organisation known for its harm minimisation programs. This partnership has been fundamentally instrumental in our large-scale concert and festival operations, with numerous highlights that demonstrate the value of our collaboration.
One of the most noticeable aspects of this partnership is Red Frogs' readiness to assist whenever there are signs of distress at events. Their proactive approach towards managing these situations has undeniably contributed to the overall safety and well-being of all attendees.
Furthermore, we cannot overstate the positive impact of their lively presence at our events. They infuse an energising atmosphere that is not only infectious but also reassuring to our patrons and staff. The constant sugar supply of Red Frogs certainly adds to their appeal! Their work behind the stage barriers is equally commendable, as it reflects their dedication and commitment to ensuring that our events are well-managed and enjoyable for everyone.
Moreover, Red Frogs' overall care for our patrons and staff does not go unnoticed. It is a testament to their organisational ethos that prioritises the welfare of people above all else. This is an attribute that we deeply appreciate and resonate with as an organisation.
Lastly, their team regularly updates us on essential metrics such as the amount of water distributed to patrons, the number of presentations they've conducted, and documented records of their interactions with patrons. This transparent and regular communication keeps us informed and aids in shaping our strategies for future events. I personally recommend Red Frogs."
'Groovin the Moo' music festival
"Red Frogs have worked with our national touring music event for the past 5 years and we consider them to be an important part of our audience management programme.
At our events Red Frogs provide support to security, Police and the medical team through roaming the crowd proactively and looking out for audience members who might need to take some time to chill out or receive extra hydration. Back at the First Aid area Red Frogs provide support through supplying a Youth Referral Officer who handles our under-age patrons and is there to support or comfort those being treated as well as their friends or family members who may be with them.
Red Frogs have played a very important role in the development of a strong community feel within GTM. They ensure that a safe and supportive environment is provided to all audience members and for that we can't recommend them highly enough."
Adrian Schrinner - Mayor, Brisbane City
"It is my pleasure to express my full support to Red Frogs Australia and their work at music festivals.
For more than fifteen years Red Frogs Australia have provided our youth community with support and a positive peer presence in adolescence environments such as schoolies to empower young people to make positive life choices.
Red Frogs Australia has now extended their involvement to festivals and event organisers. A partnership such as this will provide extra support to promoters, venue managers, First Aid providers and security at festivals by volunteering to man water stations and chill out zones, help promote a safe environment and by acting as an intermediary between patronage and other service providers. These services will potentially lead to a decrease of harmful situations and injury.
I therefore have no hesitation in providing my full support for Red Frogs Australia becoming our preferred and recommended volunteer support providers at Brisbane Riverstage events."
