Our Story

The Romani and Traveller Social Work Association was set up in June 2020 by three Romani social workers who initially needed a safe and peer led space to share experiences of being one of the very few social workers who are from Romani Gypsy, Irish Traveller, Roma or Showman families.

Our work honours the journey of our ancestors and we each carry with us, their stories and experiences of state intervention in our family lives.
