Join The Big Safe Cycle Roadshow
As the days get longer - and hopefully warmer - now is a great time to switch up your commute to university and opt for a sustainable transport method, like cycling! We're back in May with another one of our Big Safe Cycle Roadshows to boost your confidence on the bike.
We'll be at the Singleton Campus on the 4th May and Bay Campus on the 5th May (10am-4pm) with Dr Bike sessions, discount info on cycle equipment, cycle to work advice, cycle training info, adapted bike info and trials, free lock and lights for students and staff (with a bike), safety advice and security bike marking and Swansea Santander bike scheme free membership info. We look forward to seeing you there!

Show your support for Earth Day
Later this month we'll be joining the celebrations for Earth Day (22nd). This year's theme is 'invest in our planet' and explores how we can build a prosperous and equitable future that cares for people and our environment.
Why not take the opportunity to team up with your colleagues, course friends, house mates, society to organise something together for Earth Day? For example, you could; buy plants for your flat or office, motivate your team to avoid single use bottled water or paper cups, share easy meatless recipes and try going meat free as a flat or organise a litter pick. Whatever you decide to do, let us know here and we'll award you 300 Green Points!

Cefnogwch Ddiwrnod y Ddaear
Yn nes ymlaen y mis hwn byddwn yn ymuno yn nathliadau Diwrnod y Ddaear (22). Y thema eleni yw ‘buddsoddi yn ein planed’ ac mae’n archwilio sut y gallwn adeiladu dyfodol llewyrchus a theg sy’n gofalu am bobl a’r amgylchedd.
Beth am gymryd y cyfle i ymuno â’ch cydweithwyr, ffrindiau ar eich cwrs, ffrindiau sy’n rhannu tŷ, neu’r gymdeithas i drefnu rhywbeth ar y cyd ar gyfer Diwrnod y Ddaear? Er enghraifft, gallwch; brynu planhigion ar gyfer eich fflat neu swyddfa, ysgogi eich tîm i osgoi defnyddio poteli dŵr untro neu gwpanau papur, rhannu ryseitiau di-gig hawdd a cheisio mynd yn ddi-gig fel fflat neu drefnu digwyddiad codi sbwriel. Beth bynnag fo’ch penderfyniad, rhowch wybod inni fan hyn ac fe gewch 300 o Bwyntiau Gwyrdd!
