Standing together against hate crime

This Hate Crime Awareness Week, Eastlight resident Rue shares what hate crime is, how to report it and the support available.

This Hate Crime Awareness Week (11 to 18 October 2025), we’re sharing a short video featuring Eastlight resident and Customer Influence Committee Member, Rue Garande, alongside one of our Housing Operations Managers.
