Olivia Colman and Sir Chris Hoy support UNICEF


31 01 2018

Olivia Colman, Sir Sir Chris Hoy, Eddie Izzard and Martin Bell have partnered with UNICEF to support the charity's We Are Family campaign, which aims to 'put pressure' on the government to change the rules and allow refugee children to reunite with their close family already living in the UK.

The film sees each celebrity 'reflecting' on their roles as different family members, and Colman commented 'It breaks my heart to think that there are children out there - children who have already been through far too much - who are being kept separate from their brothers and sisters.... We must act now to reunite these children and protect their futures!'.
