About

This event is an informal ‘come as you please’ event. You don’t have to stay for the full event – even for a few minutes is great! You can come for as long as you wish.

· The event aims to celebrate and recognise the work of Gypsy/Traveller communities and national and local partners.

· The event will focus on how we tackle discrimination against Gypsy/Traveller and Roma communities.

· It will be a chance to come together to collectively stand against racism and prejudice showing solidarity with the diverse Gypsy/Traveller and Roma community we have in Scotland.

· Event speakers will include representatives from the Scottish Government, COSLA and influential members of the Gypsy/Traveller community.
