Alumnae can play a vital part in supporting the school by sharing your inspiring stories, providing careers mentoring or making a financial gift. Please read more below and contact the Development and Alumnae team if you have any questions - we always love to hear from you!
Kindness. Tolerance. Inclusion. Togetherness. Teamwork.
Just some of the values that are central to our ethos and that help make LEH such a special place. Generosity of spirit is part of who we are, what we believe in and how we behave towards others. The gift of a fine education is a huge privilege, and in an ideal world, the opportunities that an LEH education offers would be available to any bright girl, regardless of her family’s circumstances.
This year, we were thrilled to receive some very generous donations to our Bursary Fund, enabling us to increase the number of students receiving bursarial support to 67. This was an increase of almost 16%, however there are still many deserving applicants who we're unable to support. If you share our vision to widen access to the School, please consider one of the ways to Give Back below.
We cannot express our gratitude strongly enough for the kindness and generosity shown by the entire school community.
Our aim is to ensure that LEH is a school full of opportunity, challenge and friendship; a place to take risks and become bold; a place to discover passions and talents; a place that nurtures remarkable women.
With your help, we will be closer to making the opportunity of an LEH education available to any bright girl who wishes to come here, regardless of her family’s financial circumstances. Your participation and generosity will make a difference not only to our students but to our entire school community.

easyfundraising is the UK’s biggest online shopping fundraising site. As a community, we can raise money for the LEH Bursary Fund simply by going through the easyfundraising website every time we shop online. It doesn’t cost a penny extra, as the donations come directly from the retailers, and it’s really simple to use.
There are over 4000 companies involved in the scheme, including M&S, Booking.com, Argos, John Lewis, Aviva and Waitrose, so you can collect on everything from groceries, electronics and fashion to household utilities and travel.
Shopping with AmazonSmile is an easy way to support the Bursary Fund at no extra cost to you. Amazon will make a donation to us of 0.5% of all eligible purchases that you make, when you do so via AmazonSmile.
You can use the same account on AmazonSmile as you would on Amazon.com and your shopping cart, Wish List, wedding or baby registry, and other account settings are all the same. You will find all of the same products, at the same prices, available on smile.amazon.co.uk and once you've nominated your chosen charity you can also activate it via the Amazon Shopping app (under settings) to make the process even more straightfoward.
