All the ways the people of Manchester are coming together to help victims of the attack
23 May 2017

In the wake of the deadliest terrorist attack to hit Britain in a decade, rather than be divided, the people of Manchester are coming together to help victims and families.

At least 22 people, including children, were killed by a suicide bomber at an Ariana Grande concert at the Manchester Arena last night, and at least a further 59 have been injured.

To help those in need, citizens of Manchester are taking strangers into their homes, offering free services like taxi rides, and sharing information about missing people in the hope that they are found.

Taxi drivers and hotel workers have been working for free through the night:
