With a focus on filling a visible gap in the knowledge and understanding of the Roma community, Roma: Recycle-Reuse-Reimagine aims to inspire vulnerable young people and their families through a series of educational activities and art workshops in South Yorkshire on the importance of both Roma history and recycling.

The project will culminate in a lasting legacy in the form of a children’s book to be shared with services for awareness of the community.

Roma: Recycle-Reuse-Reimagine is a Common Ground commission for Season for Change.
