Ketane Project

The Roma Support Group has been awarded a grant by The National Lottery Community Fund (TNLCF) to implement a three-year project, called 'Ketane - Together: Roma Shaping Futures'.

The Ketane Project will address barriers to applying for EU Settlement Scheme that Roma communities face, aiming to:
  • Empower Roma communities with training, information resources, and specialist advice regarding the post-Brexit changes which will impact on their rights for settlement in the UK;
  • Increase self-help capacity of Roma communities through IT support and a peer advocacy programme;
  • Support the voice of Roma communities through campaigning and policy work.

The Project will empower Roma migrant communities through an inter-connected training, advocacy and campaigning programme to improve their capacity for self-help actions and self-representation in order to exercise their rights to ‘settled status’ after Brexit.
