Students enrolled on a new nursing degree course have welcomed the opportunity to learn close to home.
On Monday, Aberystwyth University in Ceredigion welcomes 53 students to the new course which is partly in Welsh.
Health support worker Caryl James, from nearby Bow Street, said, as a single mother, studying for a degree course away from home was never an option.
"Getting a place on the course is amazing. I was really chuffed. I cried when I heard I had a place," she said.
