Valentine Day is known to be the time of year to buy gifts for your loved one. Instead of buying gifts for your loved one, we will celebrate the love you have for your friends instead of partner by making wonderful handmade gifts.
The event is free and open to all students, there is no need to register just pop along!

October 2019
Global Buddies is a place for all to meet others from different course, country and culture. Global Buddies events will be held on the first Thursday of each month and the theme each time will be base on the time of year cultural festivity.
We will be launching the first Global Buddies event on Thursday 24th October, in the library café, 6-7.30pm. The theme for the first event will be a general welcome to Reading, and it will be filled with a variety of activities. The event is free, plus it will be filled with laughter and memories.
See you there!
