AS Health and Social Care students recently organised a special event - ‘Making Better Lifestyle Choices' - as part of their A Level qualification and in conjunction with the college's Kick Start Programme.

The students were required to research factors that affect the health of a specific target group and they chose to look at young people aged 16-20.

Gower College Swansea Music Technology student Lorna Rees recently delivered a talk to Birchgrove Comprehensive pupils as part of the new Kick Start Programme.

The aim of the event was to give the pupils an insight into what they can expect when they make the transition from school to college.

A group of Health and Social Care students from Gower College Swansea have been working hard to raise awareness of domestic abuse issues.

The Level 2 Diploma students were inspired to act following a recent tutorial session delivered by the local multi-agency domestic abuse ‘One Stop Shop.’

Following on from this tutorial, the students decided to support the White Ribbon Campaign, an initiative - devised by men – that is aimed at encouraging everyone to stand up to those who commit violence against women.

A Level Health and Social Care students from Gower College Swansea recently held a special enterprise / health promotion event at the Gorseinon campus.

Working in groups, they were awarded a £200 grant each from Lloyds Banking Group’s Money for Life Project to organise a campaign called 'For Students By Students.’

This was a fun and creative way for students to share their money management skills while learning about the factors that affect our health and well-being.
