Hate Crime Awareness: Recognise It. Report It. Respond to It.

Hate crime harms individuals and divides communities — yet it often goes unrecognised and unreported. This course gives you the knowledge and confidence to identify hate crime, to know how and where it can be reported, and to respond in a way that supports the people affected.

Recognise it

Understand what hate crime and hate incidents are, the forms they take, and the impact they have on individuals, families and communities.

Report it

Know the routes for reporting — as a victim, a witness or on someone else's behalf — and what to expect once a report has been made.

Respond to it

Build the confidence to support people who are affected, challenge prejudice safely, and point others towards specialist help.

Tell me when it launches

The course is in development. Register your interest and we’ll let you know as soon as it’s available.

Affected by hate crime now? In an emergency always call 999. You can also find specialist help in our support directory.
