Description
As a dynamic and inclusive society, we aim to create a space where everyone feels welcome to come and have fun embracing Pakistani culture – whether this is through a cup of chai ☕, an intense game of Ludo 🎲, or both!
We organise a wide range of events with something for everyone. From quiz and games nights to picnics 🧺, to cricket screenings 🏏 and dinners 🍽️; with so much more in between. All to ensure that this society and its committee are always there for each and every one of you.
We pride ourselves in having a Paksoc that is a place of good vibes with an ‘apna’ feel to it. Whether you’re a first or final year, we welcome all new members with open arms and hope this is the ‘home away from home’ you’re looking for. 👨👩👦
This year we plan to elevate Paksoc to a new level with many events Bristol Paksoc has not seen before, you will not want to miss out! We look forward to welcoming you into our family and hope you enjoy your time with us as much as we know you will. 🤩
