This is how you can help the victims and families in Manchester.

Two weeks on from the act of terror which claimed 22 innocent lives and impacted thousands more, Manchester is a city united by love and hope.

It was hard not to feel a sense of disconnect and helplessness as we watched the incident unfold in Australia. How can we empathise with and make a difference to the lives of those who’re suffering on the other side of the world?

But as we move on with our lives here at home, it’s important to know that although those in Manchester are trying to do the same, they still need our help. That’s why we’ve put together a brief list of trusted sources you can donate to.

One Love Manchester Merchandise

On Sunday night in Manchester, 50,000 Mancunians sang in solidarity with Ariana Grande and a host of other famous faces at the One Love Manchester Benefit Concert.

The concert raised over 7 million pounds for the victims and families of the attack – it’s not too late to show your support by purchasing One Love Manchester merchandise.

We love you, Manchester. Thank you ????♡ #onelovemanchester
