'Action against Hate' the UK Government's plan for tackling hate crime specifically mentions anti-Christian Hate Crime and the work we are doing to prevent attacks against all places of worship including churches. We are supporting work through the police online reporting mechanism True Vision to encourage victims of anti-Christian hate crime to report incidents to the police.
