Meet the tattoo artists helping people with scars regain confidence
"My aunty does operations on people and she said 'you can't heal them physically but you can heal them with the psychological side, mentally'.
Kate has had battles with illnesses herself, undergoing around 10 surgeries across 10 years and being wheelchair-bound."I really use my art as a way of improving myself, as part of my rehabilitation," she explained."I'm one of these annoying people that always tries to turn a negative into a positive."
"I remember one lady, she really made me realise what an impact it has," Kate said."It's difficult to know what some people are feeling and she was quite a strong Scottish woman. "I think this is coming from a personal feeling," she said."I haven't had a boob removed but absolutely do I know what it is like to be a woman and feel so self-conscious because of something we've had to go through.
