BDEF, Bristol Mind and First Bus : Hate Crime Awareness on First Buses (South Bristol)

BDEF (Bristol Disability Equality Forum) and Bristol Mind are working with First Bus Bristol to host this session in South Bristol which will be looking to...

• Raise awareness of what Hate Crime and Discrimination is and how to report it

• Learn about what BDEF and Bristol Mind's communities have reported about incidents of Hate Crime and Discrimination which have happened on local transport and specifically on buses

• Hear from First Bus about how they train their bus drivers to respond to incidents of Hate Crime and Discrimination and what First Bus drivers are supposed to do

• Have a Q&A session between community members and First Bus where community members can ask questions of First Bus about how they are trained and respond to incidents of Hate Crime and Discrimination
