Welcome to Warwick Psychedelics Research Society! We're a new society with a fresh perspective on psychedelics and their potential for positive change. Our mission? To dismantle misconceptions, provide education and services for harm-reduction, spark dialogue, and pave the way for a more informed, compassionate approach to psychedelics.
We are a community dedicated to reshaping the relationship between society and drugs by ending stigmas one conversation at a time. We believe that education and support can reduce the harms associated with drug use to create a safer, healthier community at the university.
We recognize that psychedelic substances, when used responsibly and with proper guidance, have the potential to catalyse profound personal growth and therapeutic breakthroughs. However, we also understand the importance of safety and how resources and education play a huge role in harm minimization. As a part of our dedication we are partnered with Drug Science UK!
Come along to one of our events including: informative workshops, film nights, barbeques, parties, mindfulness sessions, and expert-led seminars. Whether you're passionate about our message, curious about what we have to say or even if you are a seasoned psychonaut, there's a place for you within our community. Here, you'll find a supportive network of like-minded individuals who share your passion for exploration and discovery.
