We are gravely concerned about the actions taken against Romany Gypsy & Irish Traveller children by GMP in Manchester. We are raising safeguarding & children’s rights breaches whilst offering support to ensure this never happens again. Full statement on our website

Under Article 31 of UN Convention on Rights of the Child all children have the right to rest, leisure, play, recreational activities, to participate freely in cultural life & the arts. Is this too much to ask for Romany Gypsy and Irish Traveller children & young people?

ASBehaviour, Crime & Policing Act 2014 Sec 35 (7) states “If… the person to whom the direction is given is under 16, the constable may remove the person to a place where the person lives or a place of safety.” Clearly GMP did not do this for our children #AntiGypsyism

What’s the crucial distinction between "safe spaces" and "brave spaces", particularly for social workers who allow their Romani or Traveller identity to be seen and known? romanitravellersocialwork.org/from-safe-to-b… #Romani #Traveller #socialwork #reflecticepractice #ROMAmodel
