A Maidstone tattoo appeal is raising money for the families of those killed or injured in the Manchester terror attack.

VIP Tattoo Studio, in Rose Yard, will be inking worker bees on to the bodies of customers over the next two days, with all profits going to the Manchester Bee Appeal.

Each tattoo will cost £50, with the money donated to a dedicated JustGiving page which has so far raised more than £220,000

The studio is open from 11am to 5pm and tattoos will be applied on a first come first served basis.

The worker bee has become a symbol for Manchester, and represents the area's hard-working past during the Industrial Revolution.
