Fathers who say they’re being denied access to their children are to hold a silent vigil in Dublin today to protest against the family law system.

The Unmarried and Separated Fathers of Ireland group has claimed men are discriminated against in the courts and are not given equal visiting rights to their children once a relationship has broken up.

The men will gather dressed in Santa Claus suits on O'Connell Bridge in Dublin.

The group has encouraged other men to get in contact if they feel they are being treated unfairly.
