A Growing Concern: Rise in Anti-Muslim Hate / Islamophobia
According to the Government, the most recent hate crime statistics show that anti-Muslim hate crimes rose by 19% in the year ending March 2025, while 44% of all religious hate crimes targeted Muslims. It’s a clear sign that Islamophobia is on the rise and needs to be tackled head-on.
