The Home Office suggests that changes in police recording practices and a return to pre-pandemic levels may explain the decrease. But does this tell the full story?

Attended an insightful conference @IBVprev on hate crime today, attended by the deputy mayor Sophie Linden. We’re hopeful they listen and invest more in community workers & training, so the police is better equipped to support their community with respect, equity & understanding.
