Extract from Welsh Parliament statement on National Hate Crime Awareness Week - Oct 17

Sioned Williams MS: Thank you for the statement, Deputy Minister.

On their website, South Wales Police state that hate crime comes in many different forms and strikes at the heart of communities. It's so true, because hate crime undermines the very fabric by which communities are bound. Whatever our differences as individuals, be it our ethnicities, our genders, our disabilities, the way we worship or the way we love, our communities share humanity, we share a nation. And every community shares an obligation to respect those differences, because it's through togetherness, seeing each other and all being equally part of our nation that we will eradicate the prejudice and ignorance that leads to hate crime...

...On their website, South Wales Police say:

'We're here and ready to help anyone who has been affected by someone else's prejudice, ignorance or violence.'
