In memory of Stephanie McLean

This page is dedicated to the memory of our colleague and friend Steph McLean, who suddenly passed away on 11 July 2013, at the age of 23.

Our Celebrating the Life and Work of Steph McLean

Steph was born on 30th May 1990, and grew up in Newcastle. She was passionate about writing, and chose to study for a degree in English Literature and History at the University of Liverpool to pursue her aspirations.

In 2012, Steph moved to London, and joined Lenstore on a copywriting internship. She was an outstanding member of our team and a great writer, and quickly progressed to a permanent role as Marketing Executive. She excelled in her role in marketing, writing newsletters and emails to our customers, securing Lenstore coverage in national publications, and building public relations to increase awareness of Lenstore.

Steph was incredibly full of life. She always had a smile on her face, and a positive outlook on everything that surrounded her. She was kind, intelligent, lively, professional: a truly amazing person. We all miss her sorely, and will always remember her fondly at Lenstore. Her many achievements are worth celebrating, and we created this page to highlight a few of them.
