Get Help and Support
Have you been affected by hate crime?
No one should be targeted because of who they are, because of who their friends or family are, or because of who someone thinks they are.
We all have the right to live without fear, hostility and intimidation.
What is a Hate Crime? (external website)
Report a crime
Police
Emergency? Call 999
Not an emergency? Call 101, visit a police station or you can report online (external website)
Visit a Local Reporting Centre
If you don’t want to report directly to the police, find information about hate crime services in your local area.
Live in asylum accommodation?
We know that seeking asylum can be difficult. You are welcome here, and you have the right to feel safe in your community.
If you live in a hotel, make sure you report any concerns to Serco staff. You can also contact Migrant Help on 0808 8010 503 or by using the online chat service (external website), who should be able to get you support.
