Festival Goers can do their bit for the refugee crisis.
Campers at this year's Electric Picnic are being asked to donate their tents to refugees in Calais.
4,000 people - mostly men - are camped out in the French port town in the hopes of making the crossing to the UK.

Organiser Roisin Garvey says they'll collect the tents from the Stradbally site tomorrow morning:
