David Cameron has visited camps in Lebanon and Jordan to meet Syrian refugees who have fled their country's civil war.
The Prime Minister has called on other EU countries to "step up to the plate" and follow Britain's lead by funding refugee camps around Syria.
Mr Cameron said there was a "direct connection" between shortfalls in aid for camps in Lebanon, Jordan and Turkey and the influx of migrants into Europe.
One family of Syrian refugees - some of the 5,000 who have already been given sanctuary in the UK - has told ITV News of the violence and torture they suffered in their hometown of Homs.
Many more refugees in the camps around Syria's borders need the "shelter and peace" the UK can provide, they say.
ITV News Correspondent Dan Rivers reports from Coventry, where the family are currently living:
