This week is “Undeb Aber Celebrates week” - THE perfect opportunity to celebrate all things related to Aber students and we will be celebrating these one Undeb Aberystwyth promise at a time.
(not aware of Undeb Aberystwyth’s promises to students – have a look here).
We know that life has its ups and downs and we want to be there with you through thick and thin.
Today we take a look back at some ways we have “supported students to be happy and healthy” this last academic year:
- Our advice service has directly supported 294 student cases so far this academic year.
- Our A-Teamers supported with many aspects of the welcome period, prominently providing a welcoming arrival to new students and their relatives, and support throughout the night alongside St Johns and DDAS. Overall, they provided almost 650 hours of volunteering during the welcome period.
- The Advice service provided over 320 free meals for students as part of student money week in March, including a pancake breakfast, coconut dhal cook-along and free leek & potato soup. As well as having free fruit available in the Undeb.
- Undeb Aber’s Advice service has advised, supported and provided 33 students with free reusable period products this year.
- Our Advice Service has given out 7,658 condoms for free so far this year and 2,798 sachets of lube. We have also provided 238 pregnancy tests, and 58 STI testing kits.
- The A-Teamers also provided a further 41 hours supporting with welcoming students to University in January in the form of airport arrivals, train arrivals and campus tours.
- As part of our Exam De-stress activities in January, 118 students attended our Cariad Pet Therapy event enabling them to have a cwtch with some doggy friends.
