About Our Group

Name of society – Afro-Caribbean Society (ACS)

What is the society about?  what type of society is it? Our society is all about embracing African and Caribbean roots at the university.

Our society is a place where students of African and Caribbean descent, or anyone who is interested in joining, can feel at home and embrace the afro-Caribbean culture with different people at the University.

Our values are:

• To create a sense of belonging here at University of Chester
• To make sure students have an enjoyable time at the university 
• To enable members to support each other
• To provide a nonjudgmental base for discussion of ideas and opinions
• To create a safe space for new and international students to feel at home
