What are hate incident reporting centres?

These are local organisations and agencies independent of the police that have agreed to support people reporting incidents. Some people may be concerned about going to the police themselves, or lack the confidence to do so. A member of staff at the reporting centre will complete the necessary paperwork with the victim and forward it to the local police division for allocation.

Hate incident reporting centres also have a role in promoting the reporting of hate incidents and can offer some support to people, such as providing an opportunity for them to talk in a safe space about what has happened.

For this reason, many of the centres are organisations that work with people who are more likely to find themselves on the receiving end of a hate incident, for example: People First (an advocacy service for adults with learning disabilities); the Indian Community Centre; the Tameside African Families Welfare Association; the Topaz Centre (Tameside and Glossop Mind).
