BOOK HERE

Liz was just 16 when she was diagnosed with a rare and aggressive cancer called Desmoplastic Small Round Cell Tumour. In the ten months that followed the talented teenager was determined not to let her prognosis define her. Her passion for photography sustained her; leading to opportunities that took her from an investiture ceremony at Windsor Castle to red carpets, West End Theatre shows and London Fashion Week. Liz died, on the 27th November 2024 but not before she had captured the hearts of many, leaving us the gift of her photography and her desire to make a difference in the world.

‘Capture’ Desmoplastic Small Round Cell Tumour Charity was founded after her death to raise funds for vital research into the disease that killed her. Its rarity meaning that it receives no government or pharmaceutical company funding, and therefore survival rates have remained static over the last 20 years. Only 15% of those diagnosed live for 5 years post diagnosis. Liz lived for just ten months. Capture is a small charity with no overheads, all donations go directly to funding research to improve treatments and give others a better chance of life.
