Hate Crime
What is a hate crime?
A crime or an incident that is perceived by the victim or any other person as being motivated by prejudice or hatred based on someone’s:
- race, colour or ethnic origin
- nationality or national origin
- religion, faith or belief
- gender or gender identity
- sexuality or sexual orientation
- disability
- lifestyle or dress
Hate incidents can take many forms including:
- physical attacks
- threat of attack
- verbal abuse or insults – including bullying
An incident doesn’t have to include violence for you to report it. Verbal abuse, threats or victimisation can be just as distressing and are taken just as seriously.
