Property lost and found

Property lost and found is handled by the School's security teams working at the reception desk in the main entrance to Old Building. There is a property lost and found office located in the basement of Old Building in room AO50. The Property Office opening times from Monday 13th March 2008 are as follow:-

Monday - Friday 10:00 - 11:00,  Tel: 020 7955 7988

The volume of property lost and found in the School annually is high. This causes the security teams a lot of unnecessary work. Last year 2230 items were deposited. Forty-seven per cent (47%) of all property deposited last year was restored to the loser. A heart warming feature of the system is that sums of money are not infrequently deposited. Some of these sums of money are quite large. That is a good indication of the honesty and character of most of the students, staff and visitors resorting to our School.

Users of the system are asked to go to the property lost and found office to conduct business when it is open. Outside opening hours go to the reception desk location in the main entrance of Old Building this is manned 24 hours of the day 365 days of the year. Alternatively you can make your enquiry by email at
lost-property@lse.ac.uk

Property that remains unclaimed at the end of three months is either restored to the finder in appropriate cases or is given to charitable organisations.

Anyone who has any suggestions, observations or complaints about the system or the people who operate it is asked to contact Mr Richard Mulcahy
