🎉 Join us for the launch of Ratio 2025/26 and the Legal Advice Centre!

We’re thrilled to invite you to an evening celebrating the LSE Law community and the launch of the latest issue of Ratio magazine! This year’s edition explores the theme of ‘Giving Back’, and we’re especially excited to mark the occasion with the official launch of our brand new Legal Advice Centre.

Expect inspiring insights from our brilliant contributors, your very own hot-off-the-press copy of the magazine and an exclusive LSE Law School tote bag to take home. A drinks reception will follow — plus a few special surprises to make the evening even more memorable.

A soft gathering begins at 5pm but please feel free to arrive at your convenience.

So, mark your calendars and come celebrate with us!
