Racist incidents

Racist crime can take many forms ranging from intimidation, graffiti, offensive letters, telephone calls and criminal damage to physical assault, arson and murder. As well as providing emotional support, Victim Support's trained volunteers can offer:

practical help, for example assisting with repairs or security
information on police and housing procedures
information on compensation.

Our volunteers and staff can also act as advocates if desired, assisting communication with the range of other agencies which may become involved. Local Victim Support Schemes have a good working knowledge of, and relationship with, other agencies and services available in the local community.
