Standing Together
and Hate Crime Awareness project

A project to create multilingual, easily-understood training, information and advice on recognising, reporting and reducing Hate Crime. During Hate Crime Awareness week, we ran an anti-hate artwork competition, open to Bury schools and colleges, to increase understanding of hate crime.

What is hate crime?

The Metropolitan Borough of Bury consists of six towns: Bury, Prestwich, Radcliffe, Ramsbottom, Tottington and Whitefield.

Approximately 195 000 people live in the Borough of Bury. We welcome people from around the world who make their home here. We encourage families to maintain the traditions and beliefs that are important to them. We join together to celebrate many different festivals and events.

However, not everyone is happy to welcome people from other countries and cultures to Bury. If what they say or do to you is against the law, this can be a hate crime.

If someone attacks you, your family, your property or possessions because of your race or religion or because you are a refugee or asylum-seeker, this is against the law. It is a hate crime.

If someone attacks you because they think you are a particular race or religion or they think you are a refugee or asylum-seeker, this is a hate crime too.

It is also a hate crime if they attack you because you are or they think you are transgender, disabled or not heterosexual.
