About Us

Akwaaba! Welcome to the Ghanaian Students Society

The Ghanaian Students Society is the vibrant home for all students from Ghana, of Ghanaian heritage, and anyone who wants to experience the incredible warmth and culture of Ghana. We are a family on campus, dedicated to celebrating our rich heritage and sharing the famous Ghanaian spirit of hospitality, friendship, and fun with the entire university community.

Why Should You Join?

  • Find Your Home Away from Home: Connect with a supportive and friendly family of fellow Ghanaians and friends. It's the perfect place to make lasting friendships, share experiences, and navigate university life together.

  • Taste the Flavours of Ghana: Get ready for a feast! Join our social events to taste authentic Ghanaian cuisine. From our legendary Jollof rice to fufu and kelewele, come and find out why our food is famous across West Africa.

  • Celebrate in True Ghanaian Style: Experience the energy of Ghana right here in Bradford! We celebrate key events like Independence Day with fantastic Highlife and Afrobeats music, dancing, and a lively atmosphere that brings everyone together.

  • Discover a Rich and Vibrant Culture: Immerse yourself in a dynamic culture. Learn about the beauty of Kente cloth, feel the rhythm of our music, and experience the "Akwaaba" (welcome) spirit firsthand. Our society is open to all who want to learn and have fun.
