My mission is to make LSE an environment that empowers, supports, and uplifts low-socioeconomic students to thrive and enjoy their university experience.

My main aims as Class Liberation Officer would be:

• Improve accessibility of financial support

  • Simpler application process for hardship funds

  • Quicker application process for emergency financial funds

  • More clarity and information about financial support

• Encourage a community culture amongst low socio-economic students

  • Regular social events

  • Support workshops for low socio-economic students with key information about campus life

• Organise personalised career support for students from low socio-economic backgrounds

  • Personalised one-to-one career advice sessions for these students

  • Long-term mentoring scheme with LSE alumni for these students

  • Networking sessions with professionals from similar backgrounds

These policies are necessary for students of low socio-economic backgrounds to feel included, supported and empowered.

Coming from a non-selective state school, I've firsthand encountered the challenges of being from a low socio-economic background. This has equipped me with the insight to identify and tackle key issues, paving the way for a positive university experience for disadvantaged students.

Vote for me to drive actionable change at LSE!
