Southway Housing Trust is supporting Greater Manchester’s Hate Crime Awareness Week (3rd-9th February) and joining the stand against hate.

Hate-motivated behaviour has no place in our communities. Everyone has the right to feel safe and we all have a responsibility to stand against hatred and discrimination.

Jeremy Duncan, our Hate Crime lead officer, gave a presentation at the launch of Hate Crime Awareness Week about our work to raise awareness of the impact of hate crime among staff and customers.

All our frontline staff have been trained on how to respond to reports of Hate Crime and we work in partnership with Greater Manchester Police, Manchester City Council and Stop Hate UK. We have also set up Third Party Reporting Centres to improve access to services, which are based at:

  • Southway Housing Trust, Southern Gate, 729 Princess Road, Manchester, M20 2LT
  • Barlow Moor Community Centre, 23 Merseybank Avenue, Manchester M21 7NT
  • Westcroft Community Centre, 26 Westcroft Rd, Manchester M20 6EF
  • Old Moat Sure Start Children's Centre, Old Moat Lane, Withington, Manchester M20 1DE
  • Dahlia House, Burnage Lane, Manchester M19 1FL
  • Ladybarn Community Hub, Royle St, Manchester M14 6RN
