STEP UP BEAT HATE with young offenders

The project is working with young offenders in Salford that have been given reparation hours as part of a court order. Reparation is used for the young people to give something back to their community.

The young people will learn about all aspects of hate crime and how to report it and will then share that information to raise awareness for other people. They will do this through making posters, key rings, badges, flyers and also sharing their own experience of hate crime.

These will be shared at the event during Greater Manchester hate crime awareness week.

Book your place here.

Special Snowflake Avalanche, display and performance.

This project involves creating a large-scale visual display to critique bigotry and prejudice, and promote the strength of the marginalised members of Salford’s community.

The term ‘special snowflake’ (or just ‘snowflake’) has recently gained popularity as an insult aimed at members of marginalised communities, especially young people who want social progress. It is used to accuse people of being ‘overly sensitive whiners,’ ‘too easily offended,’ and/or too in need of ‘safe spaces’ like youth groups or Hate Crime Awareness Week events.
