Description

The University of Bristol's ACS provides a safe space for students to display, discuss and celebrate their culture.  We pride ourselves on being more than just a society, in that we strive not only to ensure the general well-being of our members, but also to seek opportunities that will benefit members whilst at university and when they graduate.

We are driven to promote diversity within our community and to encourage students not to shy away from speaking up. We are a family and as such, we're committed to nurturing the talents of all our members, both academic and non-academic. This is achieved through a variety of events, including those that provide opportunities for meaningful conversation, public speaking, networking and leadership throughout the year.

Our mission is to stand in solidarity with our community and to bring awareness to issues that affect us, with the hope of influencing change.

 

This year we've partnered up with 'Society' an app where we will manage all interactions, announcements and events - all in one place!!! We encourage all our members to download it (android and IOS) soyou dont miss anything. Do this by using your university email and selecting the BLACK ACS LOGO.
