Carl Chinn is joined by educator, speaker, community activist and
inspirational founder of the Gorniak Method, Toby Gorniak MBE,
who grew up in Poland one of the stigmatised Roma community
before arriving in Britain as a teenager seeking safety and a new
beginning.

They talk about Toby’s childhood experiences of discrimination
and violence, the strength of family and importance of Roma
culture, arriving in England as a refugee, and discovering
purpose through dance, education and community work.

Toby also reflects on the transformative meeting with his wife,
becoming a father himself, and how his experiences have shaped
the work he now does helping young people and communities build
confidence, resilience and belief in themselves.

This is a conversation about identity, belonging, kindness and
the power of choosing hope and positive action in the face of
adversity and prejudice.
