About this Event

We invite everyone to join us for an afternoon of remembrance, reflection and solidarity to commemorate Roma Genocide Memorial Day - marked each year on August the 2nd.

On this day, 80 years ago, almost 4,000 Roma and Sinti were murdered in the gas chambers at Auschwitz-Birkenau. In total, it is estimated that up to half a million Roma people were murdered during the Holocaust. Roma Genocide Memorial Day was established internationally in 2015, and is commemorated every year.

The event will include commemorative speeches, performances and a film screening.

*This event will feature talks and a film screening that will include content about the Holocaust and genocide, which some people may find distressing

The venue is fully accessible, ground floor with no stairs and double door, accessible toilet
