Norfolk Gypsy, Roma and Traveller resource QR codes and links

Padlet is an online bulletin board, but with a lot of things a regular bulletin board could never do. Users can post text, images, videos, files, links … basically anything digital.

One of the best things about Padlet for teachers is how very easy it is to use, even for young students. It works on computers and laptops, plus devices like Chromebooks, iPads, or smartphones.

Roma families and Children’s Services

The Roma Support Group and Law for Life have produced a short film which captures some experiences that Roma parents had when interacting with Children’s Services.

The film, based on a real case, is narrated by Romanian Roma community members in Romanes.

This film is part of a wider project to support Roma in the context of child protection which aims to improve access to justice for Roma families going through child protection.  

The film is accompanied by other free resources:

A guide to child protection for Roma parents
Keeping our children safe – a film for Roma parents 
Child protection- introductory training for Roma champions and advocates  

Roma Support Group and Law for Life would be grateful if you could share this film through your social networks and in your direct work with Roma families and Children’s Services.
