Working together to combat hate crime

14th October 2022

This week my team has been visiting towns across the Gwent to raise awareness of hate crime and how to report it.

The team have partnered with organisations including Gwent Police, Connect Gwent, Fearless, South Wales Fire and Rescue, Umbrella Cymru and Victim Support Cymru to provide advice, guidance, and support to residents.

Working in partnership with so many organisations highlights the wealth of services we have in Gwent to help and support anyone affected by a crime they feel is directed at them because of their race, sexual orientation, religion, disability, or gender. 

 

I urge anyone who feels they have been a victim to report it.
