Lovemore
Lismore has long had a reputation for its big heart, but exploring it from a new perspective – thanks to my sister’s mobility scooter – really drove home how special this town is.
In the days and weeks following the catastrophic floods, “hearts” started appearing on homes and businesses around Lismore.
Pretty quickly, they became a “thing”.






The “Love More” ethos that emerged after the floods is clearly more than just a slogan. It’s woven into the fabric of the community.
As I scootered around, I was struck by the visible signs of inclusion and diversity everywhere I looked.
These three photos capture just a glimpse of that, representing the disability, Indigenous, and LGBTQIA+ communities that thrive here.
