Hozier, John Connors and Bláthnaid Treacy have joined forces to record a video aimed at supporting a campaign to help missing Syrian refugee children.
The well-known Irish faces have pledged their allegiance to the the campaign set up by Bray Refugee Solidarity Group. The group are trying to get over 2,000 signatures from the Irish public to put pressure on the EU to ensure that children who are separated or unaccompanied from their parents are guaranteed safety and protection of their basic rights when they arrive on our shores.
The Irish stars in the video are urging the Irish public to sign the petition and help prevent the already alarming figure of 10,000 missing Syrian refugee children from rising.
A statement from the campaign said, “By signing this petition, you can help get the message to The Justice and Home Affairs Council of Europe that Ireland will not abandon or forget about these vulnerable children.
“Please sign this petition to shine a light on these missing children, and the thousands more that will continue to disappear if we don’t do something now.”
