Coach trip to Cardiff raises concerns about student safety
A recent coach trip to Cardiff, organized by the University of Bristol's Student Union, has sparked concerns about student safety and the Union's decision-making processes.
The trip, which was part of the Union's 'Night Out' campaign, involved a group of students being driven to Cardiff for a night of socializing and entertainment. However, the journey back to Bristol ended in disaster when the coach broke down on the M4 motorway, leaving the students stranded in the middle of the night.
One student, who wished to remain anonymous, described the situation as "scary and chaotic".
"We were all panicking, trying to contact the driver and the Union to get some help. It was a really stressful situation," they said.
The student also expressed concerns about the Union's decision to organize the trip without proper safety measures in place.
"We were told that the driver was experienced and that the coach was in good condition, but it turned out to be a lie. It was a really reckless decision and I'm just lucky that we didn't have a worse outcome," they said.
The University of Bristol's Student Union has since apologized for the incident and has promised to review their safety procedures.
"We take the safety of our students very seriously and we are conducting a full investigation into the incident. We will be taking steps to ensure that this type of incident does not happen again in the future," a spokesperson for the Union said.
