Cobalt is supporting a new campaign urging people to take a stand against hate crime in the run up to Valentine’s Day.
The ‘Love not Hate’ campaign, launched by Merseyside’s Police Commissioner today and backed by victims of hate crime, aims to raise awareness of hate crime across Merseyside and encourage people to speak out when they have been a victim.
Statistics show that victims of hate crime will usually experience up to 35 incidents of hate and abuse before they report it and it is estimated that only 18% of hate crimes are ever reported to the police.
