## A message from the Chair 

It is 25 years since London Gypsies and Travellers became an independent charity, and this anniversary provides an opportunity to reflect on what has changed for Gypsies and Travellers over this time. 

An ever-changing environment in politics, policies, and legislation has had a significant impact on the community. Some things have changed for the better, but at times it also feels as though we have been going round in circles. Few sites have been built and the experience of discrimination is still very present in our daily lives. Throughout this time, LGT has consistently fought for equality and against discrimination, and been dedicated to keeping Gypsies and Travellers included in the decisions that affect them. At one end of the scale, it has consistently 

LGT’s first annual report in 1998. The organisation was originally called the London Gypsy and Traveller Unit 

supported community members facing everyday challenges. At the other it has opposed damaging policy and legislation changes at the highest 

level. We can look back at the many campaigns that Gypsies and Travellers have been involved in over 25 years and feel proud that we have raised our voices at crucial times when under threat. 

Performing the role of Chair of LGT trustees over the past year has been empowering for me. It is a privilege to work with a team that is so passionate, skilled, and professional. 

We want Gypsies and Travellers to be in positions of influence on both our board and staff team. But we also need to consider the challenges they can face when stepping into leadership roles. So we now have a good strategy in place for ensuring that the people we need have the skills that they need, as we strive for meaningful representation from all parts of the community in London. **Helena Kiely-Savin**

## **FOCUS ON** 

## Families and the cost of living crisis 

The year saw a significant increase in demand for our services, particularly the accommodation advice service. This is due to the combined impact of the housing crisis, the lack of culturally suitable accommodation for Traveller families and an increase in the cost of living – all exacerbated by the increase in energy prices in 2022. 


## **Energy support** 

The Government’s Energy Bill Support Scheme did little for the families we work with. It was not straightforward for people living on sites to access the scheme, with many relying on bottles of gas rather than mains to fuel their caravans. As a result, the cost-of-living crisis has had a disproportionate impact on Gypsy and Traveller families and the LGT accommodation advice service have had to make an increased number of applications for discretionary crisis grants and support from the Household Support Fund and other local authority sources. 


“The price of the gas bottles has doubled... The problem is that the man who comes on the lorry with the gas doesn’t give us receipts and we can’t read or write so we cannot do the form on the internet…” 


**6** 



LGT’s community development team has also been involved in supporting community members to access government cost-of-living support. With other organisations such as Friends, Families and Travellers and GATE Herts, we helped Gypsies and Travellers to work with politicians to ensure that nomadic communities are included in support schemes. The community development team also supported community members to have their say at the London Assembly conference on the cost of living, to make sure that the community’s needs are included in future support plans from the GLA. 


“I need to apply for the support fund… I’m desperate as the price of my electric and gas has gone through the roof and I have five kids in school as well.’’ 


**362 families accessed the accommodation advice service**

## **FOCUS ON** 

## Homelessness and temporary accommodation 

LGT’s Hackney Young Travellers Homelessness Project was a one-year scheme providing advice, advocacy and signposting to people aged 18 to 30 in Hackney. 

The project also recorded information about who is seeking help and why. It uncovered significant barriers facing homeless young Gypsy, Roma and Traveller people who are trying to access housing services. These included not feeling safe, not feeling heard, language barriers, discrimination and a lack of action in the housing system.

- “My landlord now wants the property back and told me they will evict me. I have three children. I don’t want to go to a hotel or hostel or live with other people I don’t know. I’m scared.” 

## **Other work on accommodation** 

- LGT called on the government to take urgent action to improve the lives of Londoners stuck in temporary accommodation in an open letter sent with the London Housing Panel, London Housing Directors Group and the Deputy Mayor for Housing. 

- LGT was one of the organisations highlighting challenges in temporary accommodation as part  of the “Better Temporary Accommodation for Londoners” initiative, funded by Trust for London and the Oak Foundation. 

- LGT was a member of the steering group for a research project on local authority policy and practice related to temporary accommodation and submitted evidence to the London Assembly Housing Committee’s investigation into temporary accommodation. 


The LGT team present the study findings at the Trust for London temporary accommodation event 

Over the last year, there has been a notable increase in local councils using hotels for temporary housing. Our advice team have been supporting families, who face the distressing uncertainty each day of not knowing where their next placement might be. We have provided assistance to overcome the many bureaucratic hurdles and communication gaps between the family, hotel staff and housing officers and a place of support for families who have been disconnected from their usual support networks. 

“They’re saying they are having to move me to a different hotel. I have been in the hotel for three months and they haven’t offered me anything.” Young single mother

## **FOCUS ON** 

## Community development in Bromley 

This year LGT significantly widened its reach to new boroughs where there has been little support for Gypsy and Traveller communities. 

Our new Bromley Community Project, for example, funded by the Civil Society Roots Fund, brought together Gypsy and Traveller residents across council sites, private sites and housing, so that they could build a stronger collective voice and be better recognised by local services and organisations. 

Within its first year, the project reached 176 people, building relationships with community members on sites and in 


bricks and mortar, setting up community meetings, making links with other organisations and improving support from Bromley Council. It now has a local office space and a team 

member from the community to support in delivery.

“The number of community members we are regularly interfacing with has really surpassed what was originally planned.  I look forward to seeing the results come the end of the project next year.” Tom Margetson of LGT 


**Within its first year, the project reached 176 people 176** 




- Enfield –continued to engage with the Gypsy Roma Traveller Boater and Showman Project Board and made submissions to the local plan consultation 

## **Other community development work** 

The Community Development Team has continued to work with London residents who are seeking decent living conditions on council sites, improved site management and increased provision of sites and stopping places. Our reach now extends to more than half of London boroughs. 

   - Hackney – continued engaging with the council about the delivery of a new site 

   - Ealing – contributed to the local plan consultation on options for new sites 

- Haringey – restarted regular meetings between councillors, officers and residents on two council sites and in bricks and mortar 

   - Havering – supported community members to work with legal representatives in a land dispute and to engage with employers and the Metropolitan Police 

- Greenwich – started a new project to increase access 

   - Islington – worked with the council and community residents on planning for a new site 

- to amenities for Greenwich Peninsula residents 

- Camden – supported residents to gain legal representation and support to improve their living conditions 


- Kingston Upon Thames, Sutton, Merton and Wandsworth – worked with members of the community, politicians and council workers on issues such as the refurbishment, redevelopment and extension of current council sites.

## **FOCUS ON** 

## London-wide policy work 

Over the year, LGT continued to encourage engagement between community members and London policy makers. It also contributed to policy development on housing and planning and supported people to take part in the new London-wide Gypsy and Traveller Accommodation Needs Assessment. 


**----- Start of picture text -----**<br>

## **London Gypsy and Traveller Forum** 

LGT continued facilitating collaboration with London Assembly members through the London Gypsy and Traveller Forum. Its September meeting brought together community members, organisations and London Assembly members to discuss the Forum’s manifesto for the 2024 Mayoral election and its proposals on accommodation, mental health and discrimination. The manifesto will be used to engage with candidates in the run-up to the London Assembly elections in May next year. 


**During 2023, 14 questions were asked by London Assembly Members as a result of engagement in the Forum 14** 

**12** 



## **London Housing Panel** 

As a member of the London Housing Panel, LGT contributed to the Planning for London programme. This project facilitates conversations about housing and planning with community groups and Londoners who are in precarious housing or inadequately housed in housing services. LGT used insights from discussions at London Gypsy and Traveller Forum meetings to draw out key issues and recommendations that would improve living conditions for Gypsy and Traveller Londoners. 

The findings of 10 different conversations, including with Gypsies and Travellers, were drawn together by Trust for London. These will feed into the GLA’s work on the next London Plan. 

## **London-wide needs assessment** 

Building on last year’s activity publicising the Mayor of 

London’s new London-wide Gypsy and Traveller Accommodation Needs Assessment, LGT promoted the survey and 



supported those living in bricks and mortar housing to complete it. As a member of the needs assessment’s steering group, we continued to provide feedback on it to the GLA. 

The London Gypsy and Traveller Accommodation Needs Assessment will be published in 2024 and will provide evidence for local authorities and the GLA on the number of homes needed by Gypsy, Traveller, Showmen and Roma communities across London.

## **FOCUS ON** 

## Legal threats to the community 

LGT continued its long-running legal challenge to councils’ use of “wide injunctions” to prevent Gypsies and Travellers from stopping on public land. Its case, brought with two other Gypsy and Traveller charities and supported by Friends of the Earth and Liberty, came to the UK’s Supreme Court in February and the court’s ruling was passed down at the end of November. 

However, the court also said that wide injunctions should only be used in very limited circumstances. Responding to the ruling, LGT said it was pleased that the Supreme Court had outlined strict limits to the use of “persons unknown” injunctions and had recognised that lack of sites and stopping places was the fundamental problem. Wide injunctions offered no real solution. 

## **Planning definition change** 

The court finally ruled that these injunctions can be used by councils to prevent Gypsies and Traveller from stopping on public land – despite LGT’s long-held argument that they are disproportionate and unjust. 

The landmark legal challenge to the government’s discriminatory planning definition of Travellers, supported by London Gypsies and Travellers, resulted in victory in 

October 2022. As a result, the Planning Policy for Traveller sites reverted to the previous definition in December 2023. This version includes Gypsies and Travellers who have stopped travelling permanently due to old age and education or health needs. 


“ These wide injunctions have really affected my community’s way of life. It has devastated us as a community that we will not have freedom to travel.” Mena Mongan of LGT

**FOCUS ON** 

## Mentoring for young people 

## In June this year, LGT took a pause to review the Bright Futures youth programme. 

Drawing from the experiences of staff, community members and young people, the review helped identify some of the key barriers for young people, areas where LGT might have impact, and priority areas where we might re-focus activity. 

The result was a new and innovative programme, designed specifically to provide mentoring, employability and wellbeing support for young people aged 14 to 25 and 

not in education, employment or training. The programme aims to enable young people to develop the awareness, motivation, and skills they need to actively engage in wider society with pride and confidence. 


- emotional and mental wellbeing support 

- informative and fun group activities and workshops 

 safe, relaxed, and positive environments 

- long-term engagement and impact. 

## **It offers young people:** 

- one-to-one mentoring tailored to needs and interests 

- career guidance and pathways to training and employment 

With a strong focus on mental and emotional well-being, the programme assists young people on the programme to develop coping skills and a positive mindset so that they can face challenges, stay on track and achieve their full potential.

## **FOCUS ON** 

## Celebrating our culture in Parliament 

To mark Gypsy, Roma and Traveller History Month, LGT showcased its “Mapping the Histories of London’s Travellers” exhibition and held a reception in the House of Commons hosted by Andy Slaughter, MP. 

At the reception, the MP emphasised the important place of Gypsies and Travellers in London life and drew attention to the deep-rooted inequality and enduring discrimination faced by the community. Other speakers at the event included Baroness Janet Whitaker and members of LGT’s community development team. 


## **Other LGT activities marking Gypsy, Roma and Traveller History Month** 

- A screening of the film “Nowhere left to turn” followed by a discussion about the issues faced by the community was held at Hackney Town Hall. 

- The “Mapping the Histories of London’s Travellers” exhibition toured venues in Bromley and across London. 

- A celebratory event at City Hall, including campaigning and artistic contributions from the community. 

- A Gypsy, Roma and Traveller History Month flagraising event was held at Enfield Civic Centre. 

- A meeting between Islington councillors with local Traveller residents to discuss how they can better recognise Gypsy, Roma and Traveller communities. 

“ We need to see a turnaround in both political will and action. We can achieve that through a greater appreciation of history, an honest assessment of the data available and a mandate from a British public who believe in fairness, justice and respect for all.” Andy Slaughter, MP

**FOCUS ON** 

## Training councils in negotiated stopping 

LGT has been developing a training package for London local authorities, aiming to help them use the negotiated stopping approach as a means of facilitating nomadism and addressing issues related to stopping on public land. 

Supported by Moving for Change and working in collaboration with WSA Community Consultants, LGT held conversations with local authorities and the GLA to understand what learning resources might be useful. It then 



Training for councils in site management hosted by Hackney Council 

co-designed a training package, consisting of two modules, which LGT’s Community Development team can deliver to councils interested in improving living conditions for Gypsy and Traveller families stopping in their area. The first training day in the series will be hosted by Enfield Council, in January 2024. 

LGT’s Community Development Team also supported Hackney council to provide training for other councils on best practice in managing council-run sites, as part of a borough network for sharing good practice facilitated by the GLA and a number of local authorities.

FINANCIAL REVIEW
Reserves poll¢y
As a charity ther¢ is & duty io spend our rc8our¢u on our charitable purposes, but we also need a level of
reserve$ to cnsur¢ that we can fulfil our service delivery and our legal and good managcmeni obligations.
should we have funding difficulties. As such. r￿erVeS arc maintained 81 a level that would enable ihe charity
lo manag¢ its On*￿Ing service delivery in the light of changing fimding scenarios. Thc tNsle¢s thcrcforc aim
to monitor fluctuations in income and expenditure lo ensur¢ that the charity Dot ODly mcets its present
obligations but can also reasonably cop¢ with these unforcsecn circumswices. The primary use of the
charity's reserves is to d¢liv¢r the programm¢ of siipwl to the Gypsies 8Dd Travcllers of L4)ndon in
accordaD¢¢ with the objectives set out when funding was gr￿ted. As such, all the rcsmies are alrcady
conunilted lo the work programme of the fllwicial years in questlOD. Th¢ charity h88 no material liabilitias
greater than onc year. such as leasehold prowties or hire purchase vehicles: therefore. in the eventuality of a
drop in fulldin￿ cxpcnditure can be reduced to reflect the lower income level. The trustees bav¢ a policy to
ensure that th¢ minimum level of reserves v4ill ￿ aot less thaD the total willding up costs of the charity.
The tNstees. with the help of manag¢m¢DI. will k¢¢p th¢ rescrv¢s policy under review to ensure that the ri8hi
balance is maintaiocd. FUrthern￿rt, in keeping with tbe best PTactice guidaDC¢ issued by th¢ Cbarily
Commission. going forward th¢ trusteeB will continue lo r¢vi¢w the Teserves policy. annually. at the same
time that the annual budB¢tin8 and siratr8ic p18nnin8 for the year is cArried out, recogn18ing that strategic
and f￿anCIal plaDnin8 infoms the development of reÈerve8 policies aDd vice versa.
Thw¢ arc 3 categories of reserves: Desi8Dated reserve4 UnrestricteAI reserves & R¢8trict¢d r¢Krv¢s.
DeslgnAted Reltrvtt are those reserves set aside at a l¢v¢l 08reed anDually by the ln￿lee4 lo en8ure that. if
it became n￿esSary to wirjd up the opcratlODS of the charity. there are always sufficieni funds available to
meet Ibe liabiliiies of the ¢barity towards its Staff and any on-going contracts. Th¢ l¢v¢l of designated
re8erYe8 r¢pr¢8onts th¢ minimum level of re8erves Deccssarily beld at any moment in lime.
Unrestricted Res¢rv¢8 ar¢ thos¢ r¢8¢rv¢4 ac¢umulat¢d over lill￿, for which the donor has not stipulated that
funds should b¢ used for the delivery of a p4rti¢ular proj¢cl or arca of work. Where budgets identify peaks
