Why should you report Hate Crime, how and where?

By reporting hate crime when it happens, you may help prevent it happening to someone else. It also helps to understand the extent and impact of discrimination or prejudice.

• You can report it online as a victim, a witness or on behalf of someone else
• If you do not feel able to report a hate crime directly to the police you can report it to a Hate Crime Third Party Reporting Centre. Dorset Race Equality Council is one of them
