Friends, Families and Travellers Awards 2021

Celebrating the achievements of Gypsy, Roma and Traveller communities.

There is much to praise within Gypsy, Roma and Traveller communities – from young Traveller Olivia Herring’s touching #Cakeinyaface challenge, which raised over £31,000 for NHS key workers to Jack Brennan, a Surrey-based landscape gardener who generously supported key workers by offering them free gardening services!

On the 12th March, we will be hosting an awards ceremony to celebrate inspiring individuals who have made a special contribution to society and their own communities. This includes Romany Gypsies, Irish Travellers, Scottish Gypsy/Travellers, Welsh Gypsies and Travellers, New Travellers, Liveaboard Boaters, Roma people and Travelling Showpeople who you think deserve an award for their work.

Nominations are now open. Please read the information on each category on the Friends, Families and Travellers website so you know what to consider in your nominations!
