Screamer Alliance WFC contacted us last week and were connected straight away with a Casework Advocate. We've explained the next steps after police reporting, their rights and options, and will continue supporting them.

If you face racism or hate, please talk to us and we’ll stand with you too.

We’ve seen the racial abuse video in Yorkshire — it’s unacceptable. Glad the police arrested the alleged perpetrator. If you experience racism or hate, reach out. We’ll listen, support, and stand with you. Talk to us. We are #OnYourSide. www.onyoursideuk.org
