AnnotationThis paper explores the views and experiences of older Gypsies, offering a glimpse into the past and reflecting on how the non-Gypsy community has influenced the Gypsy way of life. It forms part of a series of Perspectives commissioned to support the Joseph Rowntree Foundation (JRF) five-year research programme, A Better Life. The programme investigates what will improve quality of life for some of the most marginalised and least heard people in the UK - people with high support needs. (RH).
