Welcome
And Happy Halloween!
In this issue of Life Magazine, we continue to celebrate the heart of our firm - our people. At LCP, being connected isn’t just one of our values; it's the foundation that underpins everything we do. As a people business, it's the relationships we build that define who we are and how we succeed together.
This quarter, we're proud to shine a spotlight on the incredible contributions of our colleagues. We have a closer look at the LCP CARES ethos, reminding us of the care and commitment that drives our culture. And of course, we celebrate the highlight of the year - the LCP sCARES Awards.
With over 70 new people having joined us this quarter, including 49 graduates, it's exciting to see how new energy and fresh perspectives continue to strengthen us as one team.
As we continue to grow and welcome more people into the LCP family, the stories in this issue remind us of the importance of staying connected, sharing our experiences, learning from one another and celebrating the many ways we collaborate to achieve success.
I hope these pages inspire you to continue fostering the relationships that make LCP such a remarkable place to be.
Carla Lakey, Head of People

Liz Cottrell describing the idea for our magazine name:
"When I picked 'Life' as the magazine name, I thought without life you don't have people nor animals, and without people you don't have storylines. I really love how its sounds - LCP Life."
