Roma Migration and Local Responses: Bradford District: UK Roma communities in the UK and in mainland Europe have been subjected to centuries of persecution and discrimination. Their needs are very similar to all other groups whether they are in the UK or mainland Europe. I will now outline my perception of the similarities and differences in need. Similarities: all communities need: accommodation health care education/training a feeling of safety and security

Roma Migration and Local Responses: Bradford District: UK Differences: along with other groups in society who have experienced prejudice and discrimination Roma families need: Explicit high expectations Protection by the legal system An awareness by statutory and voluntary agencies of their and historical background.

Interventions Roma Migration and Local Responses: Bradford District: UK
