Title: Roam
Lisa and her family are gypsies. They've been living in a lay-by near Deddington for the past few months. The council wants to move them to a permanent site in the village, but residents are dead against the idea; they've even set up campaign groups to try and keep the Smiths out.

It's no wonder Lisa doesn't feel her family will be accepted into the community and she's reluctant to move. Why can't people just accept them for who they are? Isn't it time people changed their attitudes?
