Hozier, Love/Hate actor John Connors and Dublin band Little Green Cars have made a moving video appeal on behalf of the 10,000 children who have gone missing during the on-going refugee crisis.

RTÉ TV presenter Bláthnaid Treacy and Irish band Wyvern Lingo also appear in the video, which was made by Bray Refugee Solidarity Group, a small, grassroots organisation who have been working on a campaign to call the EU into action.

Last January, The Guardian newspaper reported that at least 10,000 refugee and migrant children have gone missing since arriving in Europe with many of then feared to be the victims of child trafficking.

Each day, more and more unaccompanied children arrive on Europe’s shores, at risk of a similar fate. The crisis has lead to the setting up of the Missing Children Campaign, who are appealing for as many people as possible to sign a petition to be sent to The Justice and Home Affairs Council of Europe.
