Talia J Lyn-Cook

As an Anthropology student, I’m passionate about fostering community and celebrating our African and Caribbean identities. I want to ensure the inner-workings of ACS run smoothly and remain organised so that you all feel heard, supported and engaged.

Why Me?

• Strong Organisation: Managing tasks in customer service and coordinating events as a Youth Leader has sharpened my ability to prioritise, stay efficient under pressure and ensure things run seamlessly with a positive attitude.
• Community Support & Empathy: ACS is about more than just events—it’s about making sure everyone feels valued. I’m committed to offering support where it’s needed, from committee members to freshers, to maintain the strength of our community.
• Clear Communication: Effective communication is key to being a great Secretary. Through experience of event planning as an Arts Ambassador, I understand the importance of clear and timely correspondence.
• ACS Newsletters & Engagement: I’m excited to continue the ACS newsletters, ensuring they remain engaging and inform you of all the exciting events we have in store.
• Active Contribution to ACS’s Growth: Beyond admin, I want to be involved in shaping the society’s direction, ensuring it stays dynamic, inclusive and representative of all members.

I’d be honoured to be your ACS Secretary for 2025-26, ensuring our society remains a space to educate, empower, entertain and engage. Thank you for your support—I can't wait to help shape the future of ACS with you!
