Liz’s mother said her daughter “remained determined to the last”.
“We are so very proud of the kindness, empathy and courage she has shown in the last year.
“She was not only a phenomenal photographer, she was the best human, and the most wonderful daughter and big sister we could ever have asked for.”
Harrogate Grammar School, where Liz completed her GCSEs and began studying for her A-levels prior to her cancer diagnosis, paid tribute to a “remarkable young person whose presence enriched our school community”.
“She was curious about the world, refreshingly open, and known for her honest and positive spirit.
“An incredible photographer, we remember her smile and straight-talking sense of humour.”
