A Liverpool tattoo artist has held a fundraiser where people could get tattooed for a £30 children’s toy or donation to Cash for Kids Mission Christmas appeal.
Alessia Pedrosa, a tattoo artist with 10 years' experience who owns Hellcat Tattoo on Aigburth Road, decided to start the fundraiser to try and make a difference to disadvantaged children across Merseyside.
She said: “As soon as we heard about Mission Christmas, myself and the other artists wanted to get involved. Obviously, Christmas is a tough time for a lot of people in general, but this year with the extremely high energy bills, inflation, plus loads of local businesses closing leaving people jobless, it’s worse than ever. We just wanted to try and do what we could to help.
