Letter 4: Nellie Delaney

Dear Friends,

I would like to tell you about the awful thing that happened to my brother Johnny.

My name is Nellie Delaney and I am now 15 years old. I live with my Mother and my two sisters, and my younger brother Patrick.

We are an Irish Traveller family and we live in the City of Liverpool in England.

It’s really good being from a Traveller family because we get to travel all over England and we get to see interesting places and meet lots of different people.

Best of all though, is always being together as a family and growing up with cousins, uncles and aunts and grandparents always nearby. Whenever there is a family birthday or celebration, we are all there to enjoy it together.

It’s also good being a Traveller child because we have lots of fun and laughter.
