REF: 66-2303-6187824 - Bring It Don't Bin It
Your comment: Within the accommodation block there should be a place where students can deposit items they no longer need or want and others who are in need can pick-up. I think that this would be beneficial to all students who will be leaving Aber for whatever reason, so they don't have to think about throwing things away.
Our response:
Many thanks for your suggestion.
We do run a “bring it don’t bin it” campaign every year, starting after the Easter break for our students to donate any of their belongings that they no longer want/need. We then donate these items to the students union and some other local support charities. Please keep an eye out on your emails as we will be sending information out over the coming weeks of where you can donate your items and what is done with the items you do donate. If you are leaving before we have sent out the information, please leave any belongings you wish to donate in your bedroom and clearly label the items letting us know that you are happy for us to donate the items on your behalf.
If you require any further information please do not hesitate to contact us via the accommodation office.
