The British Red Cross have launched a new campaign for support of Refugee Week 2009.
The Red Cross is asking everyone to look beyond the label of “refugee” often placed on people, a label that’s so damaging and impersonal – and to see refugees for who they really are and what they contribute to the UK.
A short film has been created starring Mission Impossible 2 and Desperate Housewives star Dougray Scott, highlighting the plight of refugees in the UK and surfacing some of their stories.
Dougray Scott can also be seen performing a Simple Act of playing football with a refugee.
