Gair Rhydd

Prevention is the cure

This week’s lead story really comes as no surprise, as we see students as victims of crime once again.

Reports of crimes in Cathays and Roath have been regular features in gair rhydd news this year. Although crime figures in Cardiff are declining the message cannot be repeated enough to students that they must be individually responsible and use ‘common sense’ to prevent crime.

Sabbatical Summary

This week’s summary of the Sabbatical Officers’ year in office showcases a team of six former students who have all done what they believe is best to improve our Students’ Union.

A sabbatical role is not simply an excuse to remain a student for another year; it is a difficult position exacerbated by the fact that they are very much in the public eye. The team this year have done their best to make the Students’ Union as inclusive as possible, and have put measures in place to ensure that this is the case in the future.

What... No Sport?

Bad weather this week has meant that all the fixtures due to take place last week had to be cancelled. As gair rhydd goes to print the sun is shining and we hope that the usual sports coverage will resume again next week.
