About The Cheese Grater Magazine.
Our history, what we do, and who we are.
The magazine is an award winning investigative and satirical publication that is also home to our award winning sketch group and sister feminist zine publication, Women’s Wrongs. We’re an alternative publication for those who wish to read something intelligent, witty and biting.
The magazine was most recently named ‘Best Student Publication in London’ for its investigative journalism by the Student Publication Association in 2022. We have also previously won The Guardian’s best budget student publication alongside the now tedious UCL accolades.
The magazine was formed when former UCL Student René Lavanchy became increasingly discomforted with the production values of fellow UCL Students’ Union publication Pi Media. Lavanchy felt the publication was sucking up to UCL and the administration at a time when regulations prevented serious criticism of the Union itself.
