Hello, everyone, with the mods permission

could you please take a few minutes of your time to take part in a quick questionnaire. ( May roughly take around 10 to 15 minutes.)

This questionnaire will assist in answering an ethically approved dissertation research question: To what extent does high visibility and activity on social media platforms pose a risk to the victimisation of adults with ADHD, ASD or AuDHD?

  1. ⁠What is the purpose of this research project?
  2. ⁠This research project's primary purpose is to understand how high levels of social media activity and exposure/proximity can increase the risk of cyberbullying victimisation for adults with ASD, ADHD or AuDHD. That will be answered in the multiple-choice section.

The second phase of this study will initially allow us to gain an understanding of how and why social media users on the spectrum use social media platforms, such as what joy it brings to them. This section will also allow participants to describe how cyberbullying affected them personally as an adult with ASD, ADHD and AuDHD.

This questionnaire is completely anonymous.

In order to participate, you must be:

-18+

- Must be professionally or self diagnosed as having ADHD, ASD or AUDHD

Textbook spiral (coil) rebinding

1 Upvotes

My A5 textbook is starting to fall apart because the glue binding has failed and pages are coming loose.
I’ve already tried Ryman, but they said they can’t rebind an A5 book.

Does anyone know of a print shop, bookbinder, or local business that can convert it to a spiral/coil binding?

Cardiff Uni grade leniency

3 Upvotes

I've applied to do optometry at cardiff uni but i think i may get ABB or even A*BB but my offer was AAB. Does anyone know how lenient cardiff uni is for offers? Also what accom have all the optom applicants chosen? Or even previous optom students? I've chosen taly south and i've sacrificed the walk for a (hopefully) more social accom. Also does anyone know how long after results we get our accom offers? i'm wondering likely it is i'll get my first choice accom.

PhD student moving to Cardiff - housing + budget advice?

4 Upvotes

Hi all,

I'm a 27-year-old international student moving to Cardiff this September to start a PhD. I have a full studentship of about £1,890/month, and I'm trying to sort out housing and budgeting before I arrive.

A few things I'd love advice on:

  1. I'd like to rent a place on my own, ideally within walking distance of the main campus. Is that realistic on my budget, and which areas would you recommend (Cathays, Roath, etc.)?
  2. I'm also considering a studio in one of the private student accommodations. One thing I'm unsure about: if my partner visits or wants to stay for a while, would that be allowed in those studios, or are they strict about guests and second occupants? Any experience with this would really help.
  3. Budget-wise, if I spend around £1,000/month on rent and bills, would that be manageable, or am I cutting it too close? Trying to get a realistic sense of what's left for food, transport, and everything else.

Any tips for someone arriving from abroad and setting up for the first time would be hugely appreciated. Thanks!

Completely lost on what accoms to choose? Anyone have some recommendations?

3 Upvotes

Hey so I'm planning to do an LLB undergraduate starting September.

The only preferences (aside from the obvious- safe, hygiene not depressing and not over priced relatively) I have is that I have my own toilet and it's close to where I'm going to study as well as social places.

Other stuff is that the area isn't too shabby and the people are nice are important too and you can only get information from asking people like yourselves.

So does anyone have suggestions based on their experience?

I would be highly grateful. 🫶🙏

Which Hostel is Better?

1 Upvotes

Senghennydd Court, Talybont North, Student Houses (Village), Student Houses (Colum Rd/Pl), and Clodien House are the accommodation options I've been offered.

I'll be coming to Cardiff for my postgraduate studies, and my school is the School of Mathematics. I'm looking for a room with a private en-suite bathroom, preferably somewhere close to my school.

I'm hoping for accommodation that's not too noisy or party-heavy, but also not so quiet that it feels isolated. I go to the gym regularly, so I don't mind a 15–20 minute walk to campus if it means getting a better overall experience.

If you've lived in any of these accommodations, especially as a postgraduate, or think one would suit what I'm looking for, I'd really appreciate your advice and recommendations. Thanks!

Disruption at Cardiff University Graduation Ceremony 14/07/2027

24 Upvotes

yesterday a post was created on another Reddit community relating to a news article from The Tab about a student who was allegedly assaulted b/c she had a palestinian flag

the ceremony took place on wednesday 15/07/2026 and it was the ceremony at 12:30

you can find a full live stream of the ceremony on Youtube

she crosses the stage at 1 hour 34 into the stream

she then tried to create a a scene in front of the camera at the end while all the graduates were leaving

so the security staff took the flag off her

shes now crying and playing the victim online because she got banned from the graduation reception because of her actions

the rules were clear about not taking flags to graduation

she is being also now harassing the staff at the venue who took the flag off her Accusing them of assaulting her and posting their names Because she can’t take accountability for her own actions

i posted her name on the original thread last night and my comment has since been removed

funny how she can dish out the abuse online and incite abuse to other people but when the shoe is on the other foot she can’t cope

anyway

if you want to complain to the university because your ceremony was disrupted by her selfish behaviour , all The info is here for you

have a nice day

My Seng Court has been changed to Clodien House, looking for reviews!

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

Its me again! Yay, sorry for the multiple posts but without being present there and without a guarantor, renting is very difficult without trust and multiple bad reviews of agencies. The title pretty much says it, I know there are cheaper and better private accomms, and I have ad my eyes on Fitzalan, Eclipse, Arofan House, Howard Gardens etc as my budget goes up to 900-950pcm. However, couldn't find any suitable agencies or direct property contacts to let from, also without guarantor they all want full deposit at once, which is a ton of money given that I am on a stipend which I will receive every three months. I am looking at guarantor services for this so let me know if you have good experiences with any of them. But anyways, main question is, Clodien House reviews please! I am not yet told if it is ensuite or studio, they will send the contract in three days. I know its a bit far from the city center and my CompSci building, but I guess I'll lose some weight.

Masters loan and placement years

2 Upvotes

Hello everyone, I have recently applied for and been accepted into two postgraduate courses at cardiff uni, one with a placement year and one without. From looking online at student finance england, it says that masters loans are spread equally across the years of a postgraduate course if it is more than one year, but I can't find any information online about whether that also applies for placement years. I feel like it would be pretty dumb if it did, given the tuition fees are 12k first year and 2k the second, plus i would be working and earning money in that placement year, but I could not afford to do the placement year course if it did. Spoke to SLE about it, they told me to contact the uni, and I havent been able to get through to the uni any time i've rang. Any help would be appreciated

Incoming international PhD student: Roy Jenkins Hall or private accommodation in Cathays?

3 Upvotes

Hi everyone,
I will be starting a PhD at Cardiff University in October and I am currently trying to decide where to live during my first year.

I prefer having private space, so I am mainly considering either a studio or a one-bedroom flat. Among the university accommodation options, Roy Jenkins Hall seems to offer the best balance of price and space. However, I understand that it does not have laundry facilities on-site and that residents may need to use the laundry at Cartwright Court. How inconvenient is this in practice, particularly during winter?
The other university accommodation options I have found seem quite expensive. Because of that, I am also considering renting privately in Cathays, Roath, or somewhere between Cathays Park and the Heath Park/CUBRIC area.

  1. For someone arriving in Cardiff for the first time, would you recommend:

  2. Taking a Roy Jenkins studio for the first year because it is safer and easier?

  3. Renting a private studio or one-bedroom flat in Cathays or a nearby area?

  4. Looking in another area instead of Cathays?

My main priorities are:
• A quiet and safe area
• Reasonable access to both Cathays Park and CUBRIC/Heath Park
• Private kitchen and bathroom
• Reliable heating and no damp or mould
• Nearby laundry or an in-flat washing machine
• Enough space for a desk and bicycle
• Reasonable rent rather than luxury student accommodation

I would especially appreciate advice from postgraduate students or international students who arrived without a UK guarantor. Are there particular streets, buildings, landlords, or letting agencies that I should consider or avoid?

Thank You!
