The Gypsy and Traveller Episode Together With Young People

What is your perception of the Gypsy and Traveller communities? Is it a positive or negative one? It is an unfortunate fact that the Gypsy and Traveller communities are discriminated against in the UK. In this episode, Mike speaks to Violet Cannon, the CEO of the York Travellers Trust and Chase, a 14-year-old traveller who lives in York and has been learning Maths and English skills through the York Travellers Trust alongside his roofing career with his father. The two guests speak to the ‘Together With Young People’ host Mike about the challenges they face in everyday life.
