Roma community cohesion project evaluation

Research, Service evaluations

In January 2007 European Economic Area nationals became able to move and reside freely in any EU member state. Around this time, increasing numbers of Roma (from countries like Romania) began to settle in a concentrated area of private rented accommodation in South Gorton.

In 2010/11, The Big Issue in the North Trust provided £50,000 funding for the Roma Community Cohesion project in the Longsight Children’s Centre. This report evaluates the project’s findings.
