Session 2:
Challenges and Solutions: Disabled People, Hate Crime, Community Safety and the Police:

Starts 6:30 pm (Doors open 6pm)

Join us for a high-profile, interactive discussion on community safety. Together, we will explore the challenges and realities faced by Disabled people in Tower Hamlets in personal safety, and in reporting crime. We will critically examine why so few disability hate crimes are reported and solved, and why Disabled people are more likely to experience some crimes. Together , we will discuss meaningful solutions. There will be plenty of opportunities for participation and questions.
