Achievements Timeline

  • 2024:The Healthy Relationships Toolkit was Launched

  • 2023:Safe Space for Women Microsite

    Based on themes and patterns identified through the direct advocacy that the Traveller Movement provides, the charity co-designed and developed a resource that is relevant and responsive to the needs and experiences of Romani, Roma and Traveller survivor. The ‘Safe Space for Women’ microsite, funded by MOPAC, is a safe space for Romani, Roma and Traveller women and a key resource for professionals in the women’s sector. Complete with video resources and a text-to-speech function,
    this microsite offers accessible information about domestic abuse and safety options. The site was
    launched in March 2023 following a year of development and collaboration with Romani, Roma, and Traveller women across the UK.

  • 2022:Disrupting the School to Prison Pipeline

    In March 2022, our education and criminal justice policy
    teams finalised the report “Disrupting the School to Prison Pipeline”, which will be published later in in 2022. Over recent years much research has been undertaken on the link between school exclusions, economic exclusion, and entry into the criminal justice system. Most of this research has not specifically considered the experiences of Gypsy and
    Traveller pupils who are excluded at higher rates than their peers; an oversight in the sector that will be rectified with our upcoming report.

  • 2020:Never Going to Beat You Film

    Never Going to Beat You (15) previewed at Cinema Lumiere, Intitu Francais in London. The film was shown to the wider Gypsy and Traveller communities to generate discussion around domestic abuse, and was used to encourage greater understanding amongst service providers including social services, the education authorities and the police

Team Comments

Promoting a diverse range of futures for GRT members is vital in gaining greater visibility and wider societal change. The tutoring programme sounds like a great step in that direction
