The Solidarity Sisters (from Nottingham) went over to Sheffield to help out with the Magical Mystery tour, to spread the message of soldarity with refugees and those seeking asylum in the UK.

One Solidarity Sister explains: 'We have appeared in these costumes a couple of times in Nottingham and in Sheffield. We dress in little white dresses, with one of us in lederhosen and hats and bags.. It's about showing solidarity. It's more a sort of universal image. On the bands and the skirts there's lots of images of people holding hands. It's about spreading equality, friendship and acceptance. We look a little bit like aid nurses. Like it's about having a helping hand. Being there to support people. The dresses we're made from reclaimed fabrics. They we're used for car seat padding. It's good to be reusing stuff.'
