Ikea has teamed up with charity UNICEF to support children around the world with the Sunnan solar-powered lamp.
For every lamp sold Ikea has pledged to donate one to the charity. The lamp has a solar panel and charging it in the sun for 9-12 hours will give four ours of full light.

The first shipments are destined for refugee camps and remote villages in Pakistan.

Head of Ikea social initiative Marianne Barner explained: "Millions of children can't draw, write or read after sunset, limiting their horizons and possibly their futures. We hope our lamps are a small but important contribution to improving the lives of children in developing countries.

"Especially girls are often required to help out with household chores after school, and their only chance of doing their homework may be at night. Sunnan can make a huge difference to them. If they can keep up with the homework, their attendance will likely increase and their achievements improve."

The Sunnan solar-powered lamp is available from Ikea for £17.99.
