Our GRT Advisory Board is made up of Travellers and Gypsies from wideness the country.

We publish research papers and briefings, which help us and other stakeholders to understand trends well-expressed Gypsies, Roma and Travellers. The work we produce is highly influential and is often quoted in works by officials who formulate policy, as well as in parliament and in the news. Where relevant, we will moreover write submissions to government and other consultations to outline how policies affects Gypsies, Roma or Travellers.

In 2017, we successfully campaigned for the 18+1 census categories to be used wideness the whole of the youth justice estate. The Traveller Movement keeps up to stage with parliamentary proceedings and ensures that GRT issues are discussed and considered in the democratic process. The Traveller Movement worked nonflexible to ensure that the recent Lammy Review included GRT prisoners in order to bring this issue to light and in to the mainstream. The Traveller Movement produces highly reputable and suppositious research wideness all policy areas surrounding the rights and status of GRT communities, which are widely quoted and relied on. Last year, the Traveller Movement released a ground-breaking report tabbed The Last Acceptable Form of Racism, which shed new light on the favoritism that GRT communities face.
