Take a look back at the last 10 years at Loughborough University through LSUTV’s archive of footage.
Volunteer, Andre Batu, gives us an insight into the cuisine Loughborough has to offer. Sonny’s Street Food is a place I always end up coming back to. Its nestled on the edge of Loughborough town centre, working itself perfectly into my walk there. I would say I’m having food there once a week on average. The restaurant is welcoming, affordable, and most of all serves up some pretty tasty food. When you enter Sonny’s, you find a small, cafe-style layout that could probably fit between 30 and 40 people. It has a nice aesthetic; tables have an untreated wooden feel,…

Label Volunteer, Emily Jackson, discusses our current environmental situation. From Greta Thunberg to the devastating Amazon and Australian fires, the climate crisis is at the forefront of our lives. Even though it may not be completely apparent in the dreary and bleak United Kingdom, other countries and environments are affected massively by the change in environment. We keep hearing about the issues and crises but, we are perhaps not fully aware of the reality that waits for us in the next few decades. There have been small changes (with huge effect) in our lives, such as the paper straws introduced…
Over the weekend, news broke that Qasem Soleimani was killed in a US drone strike ordered by President Trump. The military commander was regarded as the second most powerful man in Iran, a national hero, whose military career included supporting Syria’s President Bashar al-Assad in the country’s civil conflict and guiding Iraqi militia groups against ISIS. He was responsible for ensuring Iran’s influence further in the Middle East and had been a man on the US watch list since 2003. To the US, he was a terrorist planning attacks against their diplomats and military personnel. However, the United Nations Charter…
I chatted to singing sensation Leddra Chapman about her career so far, her new single ‘Ghosts’ and her plans for the future! What sparked your love of music and what made you decide this was the career for you? I’ve been surrounded by music from a very young age. My Dad has played in bands his entire life and there were always instruments and other musical equipment in the house… So, it came quite naturally to me! I started writing my own songs around the age of 12; I remember playing the first one to my Dad and him saying…
Women’s Network Chair, Chloë Morgan, shares her refreshing view on New Year’s Resolutions; this is a must-read for heading into 2020 with the right frame of mind! It’s that time of year again. The clock strikes midnight. A new day. A new month. But most importantly, a new year. AKA: a fresh start; a time to change; a new you. We start a year wanting to be the best version of ourselves. We want to be slimmer, healthier, kinder, more financially stable, and more successful than the year before. We want to lose the weight and keep it off; join…
Think about it. How much do we over-spend, over-indulge and over-hype Christmas? How much of Christmas do we keep when January rolls around? Wrapping paper, cards and even some of those REALLY unwanted gifts – body wash that looks like it could give you hives, for example – get chucked into the bin, bound for landfill, after you keep them for just long enough that you don’t feel guilty about it. We produce around 30% more waste at Christmas in the UK alone. I’m not trying to take the magic out of Christmas but with environmental disasters filling our screens…
Label Volunteer, Maciek Anielski, briefly runs through the Election Results, seat losses and the inevitable policies of the victorious party. With a hung parliament well within the margin of error in most National Polls, the UK had anticipated a tense night for Labour and the Tories. But by 10:00pm, the exit poll smashed all expectations. The 86-seat majority it predicted would mean a magnitude of victory for the Tories not seen since the 80’s, an unquestionable mandate for Brexit and support for the populist politics Boris Johnson brought with it. The first Labour stronghold to fall was Blythe Valley. A seat which had never…
