The recent acts of racism and violent disorder in parts of the UK is of huge concern to us all. It is shocking, distressing and abhorrent to see hate-driven, racist crime being planned and targeted against citizens from migrants and ethnic minority communities, including social workers and practitioners. While incidents have thankfully subsided in recent days, we are acutely aware that many people will still be worried and concerned about possible future attacks, and risk to their own safety.
