Surgeries to take place for Hate Crime Awareness Week in the Amber Valley area
Officers in the Chesterfield, Amber Valley, Derbyshire Dales and High Peak areas are set to host special hate crime themed surgeries next week as part of National Hate Crime Awareness Week.
Our Safer Neighbourhood policing teams in Alfreton, Somercotes and South Normanton, Chesterfield, Staveley and Newbold, Buxton and Ashbourne will all be hosting events for local residents.
They will be offering advice and information about hate crime, raising awareness of the law and also support available, with the aim of encouraging victims to speak out and not suffer in silence.

Hate Crime Awareness Week runs between October 14 and 21, giving organisations the opportunity to increase people’s knowledge of what constitutes an offence and how they can report it.
Hate crime is defined as any incident which constitutes a criminal offence, perceived by the victim or another person as being motivated by prejudice, hate or intolerance on the grounds of disability, gender identity, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation or alternative sub-culture.
For more information on other activities organised by our officers across Derbyshire, take a look at our website www.derbyshire.police.uk, or check out our social media accounts by searching @DerbysPolice on Twitter or Derbyshire Constabulary on Facebook.
