Robbie helps kids in Russia

Helping out: Robbie befriends little Sabrina
13 April 2012

Big-hearted Robbie Williams brought joy to street children in Russia when he took time out to visit a shelter in Moscow.

The rock star - a Unicef special representative - added his support during the latest leg of his European tour.

Robbie made friends with one little girl - three-year-old Sabrina - who is living in the shelter because her alcoholic mother cannot look after her.

He also met children living rough on Moscow's streets during the freezing winter months and was shocked by what he saw.

"It's a real eye-opener seeing how kids like this have to live - especially when it's so cold during the winter," he said.

"Luckily there are places like the Unicef-supported shelter where kids can come if they have nowhere else to go.

"It's a place full of fun and and laughter and I feel really privileged to have spent some time with these kids."

Robbie visited the shelter as part of Unicef UK's End Child Exploitation campaign.
