The ‘Were Better Than This’ campaign was launched on the 26th of November 2014, its aim is to end the Australian Governments indeterminate detention of over 700 refugee children. Lots of influential Australians have come together to support the cause by participating in a choir song, the proceeds will go to charity. To listen to the song and view the video of support, click here. Visit the Were Better Than This website to discover figures regarding children in detention, and contribute to the organisation, and make a change.
