About us
Welcome to LSE Sikh Society!
We're a welcoming, fun and diverse community of Sikh students here at LSE.
We've got a great year of events lined up for you - we hope to have something for everyone! This ranges from socials, Gurudwara visits, Kirtan Darbar, Langar on Campus, history lectures and volunteering!
We are part of Nishaan which is a group of London Sikh Societies and have worked with other universities to build a full calendar of events, hosted at various unis! These are a great chance to meet Sikh students from other universities.
Our main aim is to make your university experience the best it can be and provide a home away from home. Everyone is welcome, regardless of your background, how much you know or how religious you are. We're all about having some fun, whilst being guided by Sikh values and learning more about our religion.
We know that studying at LSE can be overwhelming and stressful at times, so we hope that by coming along to our events and spending some time away from your work, you can have a balance.
Although we're a relatively small community here, we're one of the most friendly, supportive and dynamic societies - we look forward to meeting you and having you join!
