Volunteers help desperate refugees in Idomeni camp

Thousands of refugees are stranded in this camp, they are suffering from the rain and cold weather. 

They say some European countries closed their borders to them and ignore the difficult conditions they are facing. 

And if there were no charity organizations helping them many of their children would have died.  

These tough condition of the refugees in Idomeni camp on Macedonian border got media attention from around the world. 

This led to some charity organizations taking the initiative to help these refugees rather than waiting to see if the European countries let them in or not. 

John is a doctor. When he heard about refugees condition and saw children suffering from flu and other diseases he and his friends came here from the UK to help them. They have been treating sick refugees for a couple of days.

13,000 to 14,000 refugees, mostly women and children, are waiting for the borders to open. They have no food nor warm clothes.

Some of them ran out of money and simply wait for charity volunteers to bring them water, food, warm clothes and medicine. 

A couple of volunteers come here every day and provide them with these necessities. 

It is not clear how long these refugees will stay in this camp.
