Pitches wanted (relocation, milestones, regrets) | ~25p per word

Maybelle Morgan, Assistant Features Editor at iNews, is looking for pitches:
Has anyone left London recently because they think the crime has gotten worse - phone snatchings/muggings/bikes nicked? Moved to Europe on a golden visa in the last couple of years?
I am also looking to commission things around milestones and regrets! Did you do something before a certain age (marriage, having kids, bought a flat) and now looking back wish you could have done something differently?
UK only!
