#NHCAW stands for National Hate Crime Awareness Week.

The week of action takes place between the second to third Saturday in October each year.

It aims to bring people together, to stand with those affected by hate crime, to remember those we have lost, and support those who need our ongoing support.

We encourage local authorities (Police and Councils) to work alongside key partners, and communities affected by hate crime to tackle local hate crime issues.

We spread a message of H.O.P.E.

Hate crime awareness – running awareness events to increase public knowledge.

Operational responses to hate crime – encouraging people to think about how they would respond if hate crime happened to someone they know.

Preventing hate crime where possible.

Empowering communities to report hate crime and work together.
