This is a police funded web site designed to provide you with information about Hate Crime. The police service recognises that hate crime comes in many different forms, this includes Homophobic and Transphobic Hate Crime. WE WILL TAKE YOUR COMPLAINT SERIOUSLY 'True Vision', launched in May 2004, was aimed at improving the service the police provide to minority communities. 23 different police forces have joined together to provide you with a single self-reporting and information pack together with an on-line facility that allows you to report hate crime directly to the police. Click here to report on-line. The packs are available in all police stations signed up to ‘True Vision’; they have also been distributed to a variety of pubs, clubs libraries and health groups. They contain a variety of information that we hope will support you, should you have been a victim or witness to a hate crime or should you be seeking information on behalf of someone else. Click here to view the range of information. Each police force has a different local sheet in their packs i.e. Staffordshire has a different sheet to South Yorkshire or Hampshire. There are 23 different local sheets that can all be viewed on this web site. Click here to view your local sheet. To
