Join Multicultural Richmond on Thursday 26 November 2026 for United in Hope: No Place for Hate in Richmond, a borough-wide anti-hate conference that aims to challenge hate and build a more inclusive Richmond.
Hate crimes can have a profound impact on individuals and communities, affecting people’s sense of safety and belonging.
At the heart of United in Hope is the belief that lasting change begins when people come together to listen to one another and take action against hate.
The event will bring together people from across Richmond, including residents, young people, community organisations and public services, to explore how we can strengthen relationships across the borough and challenge prejudice.
What can you expect?
Throughout the day, attendees will have the opportunity to take part in a range of engaging activities, including:
- Theatre performances inspired by real experiences and community stories, exploring the impact of hate and discrimination.
- Guided conversations, providing an opportunity to reflect on the performances, share perspectives and hear from others.
- Conversations with faith leaders, exploring how different communities can work together to challenge hate.
- Interactive workshops, encouraging participants to develop practical ideas for creating positive change in their communities.
United in Hope aims to go beyond raising awareness of hate crimes. We want attendees to leave with a better understanding of its impact and the confidence to challenge hate in their everyday lives.
We particularly encourage young people aged 16 and over to attend and contribute their perspectives, as their involvement is important in shaping the future of our borough.
