As a key aspect of this investigation the Commission would like to learn more about the experiences of people who have been victims of a race hate crime. If you have been a victim yourself or have experience of working with victims and would like to part in an interview for the purposes of our investigation report please contact investigations@nihrc.org or phone 02890243987 and ask to speak to one of our investigations team.
