Just completed the core modules of the LPC, with the last exam being an hour ago. What a journey it has been so far, made some great friends and memories. The stress of this course has severely toughened me up, excited to get going again!

Special day! Never did I think I’d be capable of getting a first class law degree. Class of 2022 has produced the most resilient graduates of our generation, I’ve gained an incredibly talented team of peers to prove it! #graduation #edgehill #classof2022
