The Festival of Careers & The Careers Development Service!
So a fantastic thing about the university is our career development service, which provides career coaching and access to opportunities. The annual festival of careers is one of the events organised by them, which takes place during the month of October. It includes many fairs over the month such as the Leicester Award and Study […]
Law Students: Extra Curricular Opportunities!
So as a Law student (and pretty much for any degree discipline!), while a 2:1 or a First may look impressive, it’s the extracurricular opportunities and things beyond your degree discipline which will make you stand out to employers from other equally academic candidates. I’d highly recommend taking on at least one extra thing each […]
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 wanted to know more about it, so I got in touch with […]
HeforShe at Leicester
I’m absolutely delighted to share that I’m an Equality and Diversity Champion for the university! Today’s topic is the United Nation’s HeforShe campaign and how Leicester is involved with it! If you’re not familiar with HeforShe, here’s the low-down. The campaign was launched in September 2014, and the aim, as is implied in […]
The Somethings of the Future
Two weeks ago I had the pleasure of being able to attend a school in Leicester for one of my many side-projects, which is something the uni runs called ‘Pathways to Law’. It’s all about teaching children from underprivileged backgrounds about pursuing a career in law. The day began and I was excited! […]
#yourlawsociety
So as I’m the Chairperson of the University of Leicester Law Society this year and I promised to give you all an insight into the society, I thought I would give you a run-down of everything that we do! It’s a lot of information so brace yourself… *Disclaimer* – super soppy conclusion, so […]
FLASHBACK FRIDAY #8: A UNICEF on Campus Update
Picking up from where I left off during my last post in October and I was in the midst of preparing for UNICEF on Campus’ annual Halloween Bake Sale. I am happy to announce that it was another successful fundraiser where our efforts paid off as we managed to raise over £220 for UNICEF UK!! As […]
Another 93 Days of Summer…
With the long summer ahead, its often so tempting to sleep the whole summer away and hibernate until the start of next term. However, when I started at the University of Leicester, the Law Department were very vocal and supportive in highlighting the importance of networking, legal work experience and getting involved in a […]
FLASHBACK FRIDAY #4: Bake Sale Round 2
It dawned on me today that I did not tell you about the bake sale we organised two weeks ago to commemorate Valentine’s Day. Looking back at a few posts from last year, you may remember that as well as being a law student, I am also Vice-President of the UNICEF On Campus society. So, as it […]
Fun-draising
Hello everyone! I’d firstly like to offer my sincerest apologies for the lateness of this post. From the worst experience I have EVER had with technology to lovely essays that had to be written, the past week has been very eventful to say the least. However, back to the post, at the beginning of this […]
