Support for those suffering racially motivated abuse
Sadly since last week's referendum result there has been an increase in racially motivated incidents nationally and some problems have been reported here in South Gloucestershire. On Wednesday local councillor Claire Young proposed a motion to South Gloucestershire Council condemning such incidents, which received cross-party backing. If you have experienced such abuse, you can get support from SARI. The Police and Crime Commissioner has also urged people to report hate crime to the police.
