In 2023, former Councillor Nicu Ion introduced a pivotal motion to Newcastle City Council, leading to the official recognition of the 2nd of August as a day of commemoration for the Roma victims of the Holocaust. This significant step underscores the city's commitment to honoring the memory of the Roma who suffered during this tragic chapter of history.
As part of this initiative, the Council has pledged to provide space at the Civic Centre for a dedicated memorial. This initiative is a community-driven effort to raise the necessary funds to make the Roma Holocaust Memorial a reality.
