Phew! You’re safe
• Was it harder to get rid of things towards the end?
• Why do you think that is?• The loss of things impacts people
differently
![Page 11: Practice review 1: Reporting, recording and investigating Presentation Neil Denton, Community Safety Officer, Newcastle City Council Caron Storey, Housing](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649ea35503460f94ba7252/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Balloon and attachment
• Those things that form our identity are very valuable to us – we are very “attached” to them
• In general terms, we are affected more if those things we value most are threatened
• This is why hate crime – racism and homophobia have such a severe impact
![Page 12: Practice review 1: Reporting, recording and investigating Presentation Neil Denton, Community Safety Officer, Newcastle City Council Caron Storey, Housing](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649ea35503460f94ba7252/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Hate incidents - lessons to learn
• Nuisance? Annoyance? Alarm? Distress? Harassment?
• Confidence to report• Partnership working• Transparent and action focussed• Quality controlled• Proportionate not preferential
![Page 13: Practice review 1: Reporting, recording and investigating Presentation Neil Denton, Community Safety Officer, Newcastle City Council Caron Storey, Housing](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649ea35503460f94ba7252/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
ARCH - Reporting and Case Management
• Web based – to report in person or by phone• Referral to organisations that can help – logged and
linked to Service Level Agreement• Case Management system to improve
communication and accountability• Case monitoring and dip sampling to increase level
and quality of actions….and how well agencies work together (using real cases and not just warm words)

Preparing staff -Interview the Victim
• Use ‘one page’ handouts from staff intranet• Keep accurate records• Dates & times• Duration of incident & what happened?• Who said what?• Any witnesses?• Have there been any previous incidents?• Any other agencies involved?• Refer to Victim Support?• What impact has the incident had on the victim?• In-put information onto Northgate IT system
![Page 17: Practice review 1: Reporting, recording and investigating Presentation Neil Denton, Community Safety Officer, Newcastle City Council Caron Storey, Housing](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649ea35503460f94ba7252/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
• Keep accurate records• Keep interview impersonal• Stick to the point• Maintain witness confidentiality• Keep calm & repeat your message if necessary• Give a specified period to improve behaviour• Is Mediation appropriate?
Interviewing the perpetrator
![Page 18: Practice review 1: Reporting, recording and investigating Presentation Neil Denton, Community Safety Officer, Newcastle City Council Caron Storey, Housing](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649ea35503460f94ba7252/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Accessible service
• Introduced a 24 hr reporting line• Linked to Night Watch service• On-line incident diaries• Surgeries in the neighbourhoods• Officers meet Victims at location of their choice• On-line resident perception survey• Dictaphones and translation of key documents
![Page 19: Practice review 1: Reporting, recording and investigating Presentation Neil Denton, Community Safety Officer, Newcastle City Council Caron Storey, Housing](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649ea35503460f94ba7252/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Key issues• Give regular feedback to victim – be open and honest, not
just fill in diaries• Assess the case – what are the main issues?• All new allegations/incidents must be raised with
perpetrators early• Determine individual complaints – ‘what’s fair in the
circumstances of the case’• Don’t stereotype – judge the complaint not the complainant-
eg. Young people can be victims too!• Remember the role of the victim and perpetrator can change
during the course of the investigation

Tricky Issues
• Consistency of use and application• Report date is day 1• Realistic expectations• Feedback to victim• When is closure closure?• Maintaining dialogue whilst challenging
behaviour
