South Yorkshire Police Chief Urges Hate Crime Victims to Come Forward

21 January 2016 by Volunteer Placement

A hate crime can be name-calling, blackmail, harassment and assault as a result of a victim’s disability, religion or belief, sexual orientation, race, ethnicity or gender. Detective Chief Inspector Melanie Palin, of South Yorkshire Police, has recently spoken out to say “We do not tolerate any kind of hate crime and you shouldn’t have to either, so I would encourage anyone who is a victim, a witness, or who knows someone who has experienced hate crime, to come forward and report it so we can investigate the incident and seek to provide appropriate support. You can do so by calling South Yorkshire Police on 101 ( in a non emergency situation ) or report the incident online by visiting our website . View article in The Star .

Disability Sheffield is a forward-thinking, energetic organisation doing a lot of positive work in Sheffield. I have no doubt they will continue to do so for a long time to come.

A fantastic presentation thought provoking and good questions from the floor around promoting this film/message to the general public not just professionals.

When I moved to Sheffield nearly five years ago it was my "go to" organisation. I expect it to stay that way. All the staff and volunteers seem to pull out little gems of effort that disabled people like me couldn't do without. Professionally and personally - I love em :)
