Very sad about this. I always had fun being wound up by @elliottfranks when I was working in London as a photographer.
We are heartbroken to hear of the passing of @elliottfranks For almost three years, Elliott captured every moment of Stop The Hate. He came to every event, stood alongside us time and time again, and through his incredible photographs told the story of so much of what we did. His contribution cannot be overstated. Elliott’s pictures appeared across the national press and gave our campaigns a reach far beyond the people standing with us on the day. Without his photographs, so much of what we did would never have reached the audiences it did. He didn’t simply capture our campaigns, he helped make them matter. But Elliott was far more than the man behind the camera. He became part of our community and a much-loved and familiar face to all of us. Always lovely, always charming and, without fail, always there with the best pictures. So many of the moments and memories from the last three years were captured through Elliott’s lens. We will always be grateful to him for that, and we will miss seeing him enormously. Our love and thoughts are with Elliott’s family, friends and everyone who knew and loved him. May his memory be a blessing. 💙

If we’re taking sides… I’m on the side of the Pope. And I’m an atheist.
