Snacks and Sweets 🍌

Fairtrade chocolate, snacks, fruit, and juice are available in campus shops and cafes. Specific items include:

Shaw Café 🌱

Shaw Café is a fully plant-based, sustainable outlet offering ethically sourced coffee (direct trade from Union Coffee), vegan treats, and nutritious lunches. It not only supports LSE's commitment to sustainability but also serves as a dedicated space for plant-based eating on campus.
