LOTS can be a safety net for girls who want to try new things but are fearful of doing things alone. I want to create a community bigger than simply attending events with one another, but a community made for women by women. 

My vision is to build a society where women feel included rather than isolated, encouraged rather than intimidated and excited about the opportunities available to them, not fearful of them. 

Some of the benefits and opportunities LOTS will offer include weekly socials, larger events and society trips. Weekly socials allow for the building of genuine friendships, our members will have the opportunity to meet new girls weekly or to develop connections with the girls they see on a continuous basis. Our larger events we will aim to host like society balls, conferences, etc, will encourage our members to leave their comfort zones and to go to something that is not offered every week, whether it adds to their expeirence for their degrees or it is an activity they will genuinely enjoy. The heart and soul of LOTS will be our encouragement of safe travel in an established group. We will organise trips, whether they be a short weekend getaway in the Peak District or a week in Greece altogether, we want to remind women that together we can travel and enjoy the world without as many worries or risks of going alone. We want to offer continuous experiences that will be affordable and beneficial for our members that add to both their personal and professional growth through the key point of their educational lives. For us, we want to be more than just a calendar of events but rather a group that members are excited to see and be a part of all year round.

Ultimately, I think LOTS can be a society that reminds women that the world will not wait for them and that it is always better to come alone than to not come at all. Through this society, women can find their people, explore the world and all it can offer together and make all of our time at Leeds unforgettable through memorable experience. 

Come alone, be brave and leave with your girls!
