‘Truly remarkable … Lisa’s courage is an inspiration to us all.’ Shy Keenan and Sara Payne'Her mother was no mother at all. In the face of the ultimate betrayal, Lisa somehow found the strength to rescue herself. Her plight inspired us to fight for a change in the law and her courage inspires victims everyday to speak out. She is and always will be a true Phoenix Hero.'Shy Keenan & Sara Payne MBE
