About us 

Race

Thames Valley Police is committed to promoting racial equality and tackling racial discrimination.

We do not accept behaviour that involves intolerance to a person’s nationality, race, religion or colour. Race is one of our ‘six strands of diversity’.

The Race Relations (Amendment) Act 2000 places a duty on all public authorities to:

• Eliminate unlawful racial discrimination.
• Promote equality of opportunity.
• Promote good relations between persons of different racial groups.

What is a racist incident?

The police define 'a racist incident' as being any incident which is perceived to be racist by the victim or any other person.
