He been here for a year-and-a-half and has been able to take part in the single with the help of the Big Leaf Foundation, a charity which supports refugees.

"When I first came to the UK, the first six months were very difficult because I couldn't speak English and I didn't know anybody," he said.

The food was difficult, the house was difficult too because it was small."
