For the second year running, ActionAid will be giving Wireless festival-goers the chance to say Bollocks to Poverty and help people speak out against global poverty.

Attendees at the festival which takes place at Hyde Park, London from Thursday 3rd to Sunday 6th July can take a break between the acts and wander over to the ActionAid chill out area, complete with comfy bean bags, table football and giant Jenga, to pick up some Bollocks to Poverty freebies and find out how to get involved.
