United Response has partnered with the Motability Foundation on a research project, focusing specifically on the lived experience of disabled people who have been victims of disability hate Crime on public transport. A team of disabled researchers has come together to create a first-of-its-kind survey to generate new insights into the issue.
United Response need your stories to show how very real this problem is. They say that taking the results of their survey to public transport providers, the police, and the Government will make a huge difference, believing that “When we speak up together, our voices cannot be ignored”.
This is the first entry in United Response’s new Experts on Disability Hate Crime blog which includes advice on dealing with hate crime if you encounter it. Further discussion of this issue, including updates on the research project, will feature in the coming months.
