We're supporting this year's National Hate Crime Awareness Week which runs from 14-21 October 2023.

Although the national week covers all forms of hate crime, including those related to someone's race, religion, disability, sexual orientation or transgender identity, every year the national organisers choose a particular theme to focus on. This year that theme is faith hate crime with a particular emphasis on standing in solidarity with those affected by antisemitism.

Councillor Ann-Marie Cousins, Cabinet Member for Community Safety and Enforcement, said: "The Royal Borough of Greenwich stands with National Hate Crime Awareness Week and we support all those impacted by hate crimes.

"In collaboration with our partners, including the police, we are fully committed to tackle hate crimes in Greenwich and implement proactive measures to prevent hate crimes from happening.

"We do not tolerate any form of hostility based on race, religion, disability, sexual orientation or transgender identity.;We celebrate and uphold diversity in our vibrant communities and foster a culture of unity and respect."
