I think I’ve experienced a hate crime 

Hate crimes hurt individuals and communities, and reporting it allows AUB and the police to better understand and deal with what is happening.  

Hate incidents and hate crime are acts of violence or hostility against a person or property that is motivated by hostility or prejudice towards a person due to a particular characteristic. This could be a disability, race or ethnicity, religion or belief, sexual orientation, transgender identity or an alternative sub-culture hate crime. A victim does not have to be a member of the group at which the hostility is targeted. In fact, anyone could be a victim of a hate crime. 
If you feel you are in immediate danger, you can call 999 (or 112 from a mobile). 

Find a safe place.  If an incident has just happened try and find somewhere you feel safe. If this isn't possible and you are scared or fearful on campus you can call AUB security on 07471145782. 

The Faith and Reflection Centre, based in Talbot House on the edge of the AUB / BU campuses, has a quiet room and offers a quiet, supportive space. Open to people of all faiths, or none, the Centre is a reassuring and secure environment.
