S3 Ep06 - Roma & Traveller Families in the Family Courts: Challenges, Misconceptions & Justice
Description
The Roma and Traveller communities in the UK have historically faced discrimination, systemic barriers, and deep-rooted misconceptions within the family justice system. Despite legal protections, many families continue to encounter prejudices, lack of cultural understanding, and disproportionate interventions.
In this episode, we explore:
— The unique challenges faced by Roma & Traveller families in family law cases
— The role of cultural misunderstanding & bias in social work and legal proceedings
— How domestic abuse support & safeguarding differ in these communities
— The impact of care proceedings & child protection interventions
— What family law professionals can do to ensure fairer outcomes
This is an essential conversation for family law practitioners, social workers, policymakers, and advocates working with Roma & Traveller communities. Produced and distributed by Innobella Media.
