This is the 25th anniversary of National Hate Crime Awareness Week. This time it is from 10th to 17th October 2020.

Norfolk and Suffolk Police, have written to say they take this type of crime very seriously and are committed to tackling it to make communities safer.

What is ‘hate’?

Hate is when an offender is hostile towards an individual’s, or a group’s identity, because of prejudice against their protected characteristics:

What are hate incidents and crimes?

An Hate Incident is when an individual, or anyone else, thinks that an event was motivated by hostility or prejudice based on a person or group’s protected characteristics. Any criminal offence can be a Hate Crime if it was motivated by hostility or prejudice against a person or a group’s protected characteristics.

NCC’s Ash Dieback team will shortly be inspecting roadside trees within the parish. This will cover roads that their data suggest are used most frequently. The primary focus is to identify Ash trees in decline due to Ash Dieback Disease (ADB) and assess the risk to highway users. They may also identify other trees that are in a dead or dangerous condition.

The team remind landowners that ‘their trees are their responsibility’ and try to raise awareness of ADB. Trees in poor condition but not considered imminently dangerous will have notices fixed to them and be marked with yellow paint to alert the owner that action may be required.

The team has advised the Parish Council that they may contact us if they find any particular areas of concern or have a query regarding ownership of an individual tree or tree group.
