Liz is 16 and lives to take photographs. She has a rare and aggressive cancer which doctors have told her means she has between 6 months and 3 years to live. We hope every day for a lifetime for her but if we can’t achieve that we hope to create her a lifetime of memories. If we can make even one of her photography bucket list happen for her she will be beyond delighted.

Liz would love to:

Please help us to give her the life she deserves in the short time she has.

He leers at her, tries to talk to her, presses against her. She is uncomfortable. He gives her no space to move. She tries to ignore him in silence. All the while, very much aware of his presence, his lasciviousness. Why the actual fuck do some men behave this way? 3/3 #disgust

*Rant incoming. As a single mum of a young adult daughter (18), I knew, with dread, that this day would come. Women/mums- we can prepare our children for all the good & evil in the world out there but it still blindsides you when untoward things happen. 1/3

Girl is first in an empty bus. Chooses elevated window seat, listening to her music on headphones. Older man in 50s with a walking cane, fixated on her as he enters, chooses to sit beside her. Note: the entire bus is empty. There are seats for the less mobile, disabled, etc. 2/3
