A musician from Belfast has released a single to raise funds for a local charity 'Homeplus', focused on the work they do supporting refugees.
This will be Colm McIntyre's second time creating music to help others.
Last year, he released an album for homelessness and managed to raise £1000 using his original music.
This money went to the same charity 'Homeplus' who also support people that are homeless in Northern Ireland.
Colm has been telling Q Radio about the inspiration behind the song and how he hopes it will help to raise awareness of the issues refugees are faced with:
The single 'Home' will contribute £1 of it's proceeds to the local charity.
Next month, Colm will also launch his five track EP which is entitled with the same name, 'Home'.
Below is a link to the song and video:
