  • Hate Crime Advice and Support

    Hate crime is never acceptable.

    If you’ve experienced or witnessed a hate crime, we’re here to support you. Our advisers can provide confidential guidance on your rights, how to report incidents, and what steps you can take. You don’t have to face this alone—we’re here to help.

    What is Hate Crime?

    Hate crime happens when someone bullies, threatens, or attacks you because of who you are. This could be due to a physical disability, learning difficulties, or mental health challenges. It might be because of your race, religion, gender identity, or sexual orientation. No one should be targeted for simply being themselves.

    Why Report Hate Crime?

    Hate crime is a serious offence, and you have the right to feel safe.

    It’s understandable to feel worried about speaking out, but reporting it to the police or a support service like Citizens Advice connects you with experts who can help. You don’t have to face this alone—support is available.
