Romani Roots

We are very pleased that the organisation "Romany Road" have kindly given  permission for us to publicise their organisation and site here on the ROMANI ROOTS website.

We re-aquainted ourselves with the "Romany Road" committee members  at the Hartlebury GRTHM event in June of this year and throughly enjoyed their company  whilst  both organsiations were sharing the same event room.

"ROMANY ROAD is a non-political, non-profit-making society, our aim being to share and enjoy memories and reminiscences of Romany Life.  We are not a family history society, although details of family history will, of course, sometimes be relevant and of great interest to people researching certain family names.  Our ambition is purely to celebrate and record events in our ancestors' lives and we invite anyone to send us their contributions. "

"We try to capture glimpses of by-gone days, that allow us to present our old folki with respect and admiration for their tenacity, way of life and survival in what was sometimes a very hostile environment. We welcome any contributions of information, stories, photographs, sketches or poems, which will appear in our quarterly journals.  We would however, stress that views of individuals who contribute to the society, whether expressed through these pages, through our journals or elsewhere - are not necessarily those of the committee or other members."

"UK Membership costs £8.00 a year, which includes postage."
"Journals run from January to December for four quarterly journals full of Romany stories and photographs."  
"We look forward to hearing from you and hope you will join us in celebrating Romany culture. "
