A new service called Bedfordshire’s Community Mediation Service has been designed to support people who live in Luton, Central Bedfordshire and Bedford and are experiencing Hate Crime/ Hate Incidents.
The service also aims raise awareness, breakdown reporting barriers and work as a mediation service to increase the reporting rate of hate crimes across Bedfordshire.
Support is provided through an online chatline and there is an option for people who can not access this to have over the phone or face to face support if needed. In addition to this, the website provides UK hate crime information and statistics and over the next few months will have an awareness page with learning materials for everyone to access.
The service provides a chatline and is accessible to the community via the Bedfordshire Community Mediation Service website and will be open Monday to Thursday 9 am till 5 pm and on Friday from 9 am till 4pm.
Please see the link below to find out more information and to access the chatline.
