Teenage Cancer Trust‘s annual skin cancer prevention campaign, Shunburn, kicked off in earnest this week as the photoshoot starring Nicholas Hoult (Skins, A Single Man) and Michelle Ryan (EastEnders, Bionic Woman, 4321), coordinated and art directed by Livity and shot by the wonderful Mary McCartney, was picked up by national press and fans alike, spreading the sun protection message far and wide.

Livity Co- founder Sam Conniff talks to the Sunday times about mentoring and how it is a two way street of learning for both mentor and mentee. Check it out
"It’s a misconception that mentoring is a one-way street, as your mentee can often be like a mirror to all the challenges you are facing yourself.”
KIRAN KAUR -" Young people are confused about politics and unclear on who to vote for – but we're also the most important group, because we're the future."
Having established Bebo’s Big Think as a hugely effective forum for engaging hundreds of thousands of young people from all walks of life across the country in debates about Crime, Climate Change, Careers and Books, Livity took the DCSF’s new sexual health campaign Sex. Worth Talking About to the BBT community to kick off constructive conversations about sex, sexual health, contraception and relationships. The results have been even more interesting and impressive than we’d imagined.
Tens of thousands of people visited the Bebo page to tell us about the most useful conversation they’ve ever had about sex and relationships and to start having constructive, candid conversations of their own. We picked 6 lucky winners from across the country to come down to London for a ‘Girls Night In’ at the luxurious Hotel Russell and a ‘Boys Night Out’ at the Bloomsbury Bowling Lanes. Hosted by MTV BASE presenter Zara Martin, and facilitated by sex and relationships guru, Anita Naik and uber-experienced media professional, Lawrence Lartey we delved deep into the minds of the young people and finished the day at the Dizzee Rascal and Lily Allen concert at the O2 Arena.

Thanks to everyone involved for a fantastic and very positive night. Something definitely worth talking about for a long time to come.
