Domestic abuse
Domestic abuse takes many forms. If it is not reported early, it often gets worse. It takes place between people who have a relationship now or had one in the past. It can happen between partners or family members.
Examples are:
Physical: slap, push, punch, pinch, kick, pulling hair, throwing things at them
Emotional: making someone afraid, cutting them off from friends and family, criticising how they look, blaming them, verbal abuse, threats, insults
Sexual: forcing someone to have sex (rape), saying they are no good at sex
The National DA Helpline gives confidential support, advice and information for people experiencing domestic abuse. Family or friends can call on their behalf. To reduce risk to victims, RISE Mutual provides support for those who wish to cease abuse www.risemutual.org / Email: [email protected]
Hate crime
Hate crime can involve offensive language, violence or harassment used against someone because of a perceived difference, such as race, religion, disability, sexual orientation or gender identity. It can take many forms, including pushing, name calling, spitting or making threats.

Report crime on public transport quickly and be specific about where it is. On the tube and trains, it can be followed up by British Transport Police who patrol them. Buses, trains and stations have many cameras that can help to identify criminals.
