Encouraging Reporting from Hard to Reach Groups Josh Durham Wyre & Lancaster District Hate Crime Project

The Project The Hate Crime project began in August 2010, employing a full-time Hate Crime officer covering Wyre and Lancaster District. This followed a successful pilot from in Wyre only. It is funded by the Big Lottery for 5 years, with Lancaster City Council and Wyre Council and covers Lancashire Constabulary’s Northern Division.

The Work of the Project identifying hate crime ‘hotspots’ and repeat victims Making the links between anti-social behaviour, hate crime and the safeguarding vulnerable adults agenda training agencies working with people who are vulnerable to hate crime acting as a conduit between the criminal justice system and communities co-ordinating multi-agency responses to hate crime and community cohesion issues as they arise

Third Party Reporting Community Centres, Organisations & Agencies where staff and volunteers have been trained about Hate Crime Places that communities already access and feel safe Gives people choice and control over how they wish to report what has happened to them

Issues Preventing Reporting Level of awareness of what hate crime and hate incidents are Acceptance that it is just something to be put up with Belief that some incidents are too trivial to report or there was no witness Language or accessibility barriers

Issues Preventing Reporting cont: Poor past (or historic) experiences with the Police or other Agencies Fear of going to court Fear of retribution Shame or stigma

Reaching Out workers from BAME community do not necessarily live in the area they work People from LGB&T communities do not necessarily socialise or attend groups in the area they live

Adapting Strategy Number of reassurance visits to vulnerable takeaways in Lancaster District Delivered hate crime awareness sessions to 40 door supervisors for 5 local security companies who work at clubs and takeaways. Since the training, the reporting of hate incidents and crimes at takeaways has increased by 275%.
