I am a traveller. Why do people always think negatively of us?
There is no doubt that due to the shortage of authorised sites some Gypsies and Travellers have moved onto unauthorised sites. This has led to negative reactions from the settled community. If the Council can work together with Gypsies and Travellers and the settled community to identify sites for a small number of additional pitches in Hertsmere it will hopefully reduce such reactions in the future.
