THE venue of a street theatre performance in Malvern to highlight the problem of hate crime has been changed.
The event was due to be held at the retail park in Malvern Link, but it will now take place at Edith Walk in the town centre, from 10am to 2pm.
Actors will interact with members of the public using mime and chalkboards to explore the various types of hate crime and the impact it has on victims.
Kevin Purcell, South Worcestershire Superintendent for West Mercia Police, said: “Nobody should have to tolerate hate crime because of who they are or where they come from and so it is important our communities have the confidence to come to police and report hate crimes or incidents. Tackling hate crime is a priority for us and we will act and investigate all reports.”
