About us

Join RAG if you want to make change through a diverse mix of events, campaigns and activities, in support of a variety of causes - ranging from women empowerment, disability and mental health, human rights, sustainability and homelessness. Each year RAG members vote to select three charity partners from local, national, and international categories. Together, we fundraised over £16,000 last year for our charity partners! 

RAG CHARITIES 

This year the student body voted for three charity partners which RAG are fundraising for! Our partners this year are:

Local - The Sharan Project

National - Women for Refugee Women

International - Care4Calais

LSESU Vintage and Charity Shop 

We bring premium vintage and charity clothes to campus, all whilst donating proceeds to the RAG Charity Partners and promoting sustainability!

You can get involved and support us by simply buying some clothes, donating your clothes (during our opening hours), or volunteer in our shop!

We are looking for students looking to embed themselves into the LSE community by volunteering to help staff the shop, which is conveniently located in the centre of campus, so always max 5 minutes away from your next class!
