Whatever the reason – many students often stay in Aberystwyth over the Winter break. We don’t want anyone to feel alone, so we’ve put together this list of events going on as well as a list of useful contacts.
We’ve also created a Facebook group to share updates of events and activities, as well as giving students the opportunity to arrange meet-up with others.
You can also take a look at the Students' Union buliding opening times over Winter break here!

Free Hub
During the cost of living we don't want any student going hungry or in need of the bare essentials. You can visit our Free Hub to get your essentials this Winter break. The Free Hub is made up of two rooms:
- The first is our Clothing & Homeware room. In here you'll find some handy stationary like files, some crockery , cooking utensils and even some cutlery. You can also find some pre-loved items such as dvds, books and a whole range of donated pre loved clothing, all donated by the Aber community.
- Our second room is full of Food & Essentials. In here you'll find essentials for your home such as washing up liquid, toothpaste, toilet paper, shower gel and shampoos and a whole range of non-perishable foods. You can find pasta, soups, a whole range of tinned goods and even some biscuits to go with our tea and coffee available. This room is accessible to students on weekdays between 10am - 4pm.
Location: If you come down to the underground, carry on walking until you are passed the community kitchen, through the white doors around the corner to your left and you'll find our free hub!
