The LSE Parents Network is a group that provides staff with children (and those expecting or planning to start a family) with opportunities to discuss and address issues of work-life balance that may be of concern to them. The Network is run on a voluntary basis by staff for staff.

News
We now have a room on the first floor of the Parish Hall, where expectant mothers can put their feet up and rest and where staff who are still breast-feeding and returning to work can express and store milk. For more information and the entry code email Health&Safety@lse.ac.uk. For advice on how to use the room and its facilities, contact Mira Krusteff email: m.krusteff@lse.ac.uk.

In particular, LSE Parents Network:

Hosts at least one informal lunch-time meeting per term for any interested staff across the School to come and meet with other LSE parents.
