The 24/25 Committee

Executive Committee

President - Isabella Soremi

As President, it is my responsibility to lead the society, overseeing the delivery of quality service to our members and managing the various divisions of our ACS. My vision is to continue building upon the unique ACS sense of community, providing inclusive and entertaining events, devoted welfare sessions, diverse career-focused sessions and everything in between. As a society, we are dedicated to increasing the access of African and Caribbean students into higher education and will be expanding our outreach to the Midlands and further North, focusing on demystifying Oxford to prospective students. Above all, I am dedicated to the progression of all our current, prospective, and past African and Caribbean students.

Vice President - George Abaraonye

The role of the Vice President is to assist the President in the running of the society alongside supporting the rest of senior committee. I’m there to be a helping hand and generally maintain the flow and make sure things are as smooth sailing as possible for all our members. I have the further responsibility to sit on the Race Equality Task force to engage in conversations on racial diversity with wider university. I can’t wait to help inspire, empower, and showcase the incredible culture we add to the Oxford student experience!

Access & Outreach Officers

Our Access and Outreach team empowers and supports prospective students from African and Caribbean backgrounds in applying to institutions like Oxford. By connecting current and future members of the ACS, they highlight how we as a society strive to serve a greater community and support both current and future students from these backgrounds.

Welfare Officers

Academic and social life at Oxford can be at times difficult, with added pressures that come with coming from a black or ethnic minority background. The welfare team is the support system of our society, offering endless help, advice, and support to our members to ensure nobody has to endure these pressures alone. Part of this involves welfare events designed to allow members to relax, feel seen, and connect with each other on meaningful levels.
