Uni is what you make of it

  Recently, I was working an Open Day as a Law School Student Ambassador and a parent asked me what kinds of networking opportunities there are available for law students. I rattled off my usual list: Law Society competitions and moot winners receive work experiences or offers to shadow lawyers/judges, barristers and solicitors come in […]

Black Lives Matter

  For those of you who didn’t know, last month the SU observed Black History Month. As a part of the observance, the University of Leicester Amnesty International Student Division ran a campaign spreading awareness about the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement.

I have a problem…(I can’t say ‘no’!)

She’s done an incredible job this year and has successfully rebuilt the Law Society from the ground up. We’ve been nominated for […]

Bear with me.   The week kicked off with getting back into the swing of things at Pole Fitness! This wasn’t before getting my ASDA order and now being […]
