Hate Crime Plan
October 2020 saw a comprehensive new plan launch outlining how hate crime will be tackled and communities brought together in Greater Manchester over the next three years.
The plan to tackle hate crime will raise awareness of hate crimes and encourage people to report them, while also improving support for victims of hate incidents.

Third Party Hate Crime Reporting Centres
The Forum worker and Chair attended a short training course last year to find out more about the JNR8 Youth & Community Centre taking on the role of a Third Party Hate Crime Reporting Centre, in line with Manchester Hate Crime Strategy:
http://www.manchester.gov.uk/downloads/download/5185/hate_crime
The strategy sets out a clear vision for tackling hate crime in Manchester against the following five key partnership priorities:
- Prevent hate crime,
- Increase the reporting of hate crime and hate incidents,
- Take effective action against perpetrators,
- Support victims of hate crime,
- Improve partnership responses.
The five strands of hate crime set out by the Government which will be recorded and monitored are:
- Disability,
- Race, Religion or belief,
- Sexual orientation,
- Trans and gender reassignment.
- Alternative sub culture became the sixth hate crime strand in April 2013.
The Whalley Range Community Forum believe the JNR8 Centre is an ideal venue to support residents who feel they have been a victim of a hate crime or hate incident – as we have built up a good relationship with local residents and groups.
There are facilities at the centre to support victims to report incidents on the dedicated website www.report-it.org.uk/ which gives information and an online reporting facility.
(reporting incidents anonymously is an option).
The different levels of a reporting centre can vary depending on resources available – from displaying literature, promoting hate crime reporting or providing recording, reporting and signposting to support services.
We aim to display information and support residents if they wish to report incidents online.
