Hate Crimes
Reporting a hate crime makes a difference.
Leicestershire is a culturally diverse county, there is no place for hate.
If you have been a victim of hate, help is available.
Why you should report
Hate crimes and incidents hurt; they can be confusing and frightening, it can be name calling, being assaulted, damage to property or cyber bullying for example.
By reporting them when they happen to you, you may be able to prevent these incidents from happening to someone else. Reporting also helps local councils and the police understand the extent of hate incidents and crimes in your local area.
Reporting makes a difference - to you, your friends, and your life.
