Charities
update
£20800
Running total
3 weeks later we had our
next event. We were to host
the annual Charity Auction
which this year was held at
Camp and Furnace. This was
a great, quirky venue for our
first presenting role. Watch out
Ant and Dec. We’d recruited 13
weird and wonderful acts to take
part in the show. It was a brilliant
effort from everyone, a special
thank you to our Wicked freshers
who blew us away (punny). The

We can see where the money raised
from LMSS events goes and see the
difference it makes in the city
Following on from Boone and
Hamish’s incredible year was never
going to be an easy task. As freshers,
we loved their events and were keen
to get involved as much as we could.
When March came around, we took
the chance t o run for charity reps, and
against some stiff* competition, we
got ourselves a place on committee.
After thinking about it carefully, we
decided to choose two local charities,
Claire House Children’s Hospice
and The Whitechapel Centre. We are
passionate about these charities as
we can see where the money raised
from LMSS events goes and see the
difference it makes in the city we all
call home for at least 5 years.
At the end of April we had our charity
debut, finding raffle prizes for
the LMSS Summer Ball. Alongside
revising for our VERY stressful first
year exams, we managed to get a
handful of great prizes kindly donated
from local and national businesses
which we hoped would go down well.
After a stressful ‘girls gone wild’esque bus journey to Southport,
losing charity buckets (that weren’t
lost) and not quite remembering the
raffle, we managed to raise £356.35
for Claire House. Not a bad start to
our year.

LMSS 3 Peaks 2016
3 Peaks : £17,271 raised!!!!! U WOT?!?!
3 peaks planning was well under way
and by the end of summer we had
97 people signed up to hike across
Yorkshires 3 biggest mountains**
(yes, mountains), all this planning
despite being half way across the world
and living in 2 separate countries.
Lupine Adventure Company pushed
our team through the peaks and we
couldn’t have done it without their
encouragement and entertainment
throughout the day. They even
supported our ever so slightly
hungover trouper, Gina, who only
completed half of the first peak before
realising that getting in at 3:30am for
our 4am start wasn’t the best idea…
By the time we reached the bottom of
the first peak this was old news as we
heard Femi had arrived in his Delta taxi
from Liverpool after oversleeping and
missing the bus that morning. Still to
this day he won’t tell us how much he
paid for that Delta but we appreciate
the effort and he went on to complete
the Yorkshire 2 peaks in a great
time. The aches, pains and blisters
were worth it at the end of the day
when everyone smashed the 12hour
challenge, with the first group coming
in sub 9 hours and everyone else
staggered not too far behind. We had a
really fantastic day and we’re so proud
of everyone. The total completely
exceeded our expectations raising
£17,271. We want to thank everyone
who took part and to anyone who
donated, it makes a huge difference.

LMSS 3 Peaks 2016
group dances were a hit as usual
and got the very generous doctors
spending their hard earned cash.
Dirty dancing was a highlight of the
night, with last years’ charity reps
stealing the show as well as the 5th
years money, selling for the highest
bid of the night. Pressure is on us
for making our come back in next
years show with a banger. The talent
on the night was outstanding, and
everyone will agree the night was a
huge success, who’d have thought
we’d have Eric Prydz, Justin Bieber
and Adele in the Baltic Triangle.
Alcohol and donations went hand in
hand, as the night went on the bids
got higher with the total from the
night reaching £2437. There is no
way we could have done this without
the generosity of Camp and furnace,
everyone loved drinking the night
away listening to music next to the
caravan and under the fairy lights.

Give to charity now! Order
some lovely naked calendars!
With all the LMSS events during No Mercy
November, we haven’t stopped. Despite
being busy, this month our attention has
been focused on getting as many people
naked as possible for our LMSS Naked
Calendar 2017 (great Christmas present).
We’ve seen more bums, balls and nip slips
than we ever have
before, but its all
for charity eh. We
appreciate the
huge effort made
from everyone
that took part,
especially to the
boys who went the
extra mile hitting
the gym on the
run up to the big
reveal- bound to
increase our sales.
The calendars will
be a MUST HAVE
item for every
student house,
a great stocking
filler or for your
own personal
enjoyment so make
ORDER YOUR NAKED
CALENDARS NOW!!
sure you get your orders in!
We will be selling at the end
of term with all proceeds
going to our chosen charities.
So far we have thoroughly enjoyed our role
as LMSS Charity reps, it’s been a really busy
term for us and not a day goes by without
something to sort out. But each event has
been so rewarding and successful it makes
all the organising and stress worth it. We’ve
been to visit Claire House Children’s Hospice
and The Whitechapel centre and we can’t
wait to put on more events this coming
year as we’ve seen what a difference we
can make. We’re so proud to be a part of a
society that does so much for charity and we
can’t thank you all enough for your efforts
and support this year. We will be looking for
some eligible bachelors and bachelorettes
for LMSS Take Me Out in February so please
let us know if you’re keen to get involved.
We’re hoping to incorporate a fashion show
into TMO, do a mystery bus tour, Jail Break,
a coast to coast cycle and a raffle with great
prizes for the LMSS Annual Ball. Don’t by
shy and come along to our events, lets try
and raise as much as we can for our chosen
charities! Love, Malex xxx
See this bucket??
PUT MONEY IN IT!!
