Full list of police-recorded hate crime offences, by force

Religious hate crime recorded by police forces in England and Wales has reached a record high (Terry Waller/Alamy/PA) -

Here is a full list of the number of hate crime offences recorded by police in England and Wales in 2024/25, broken down by force.

The figures have been published by the Home Office.

No data has been included for the Metropolitan Police due to a change in the way the force records hate crime, which means comparable figures are not available.

The list is divided into three sections: total offences; offences where the motivating factor was religion; and offences where the motivating factor was race.

In each section the information reads, from left to right: name of force; number of offences in 2024/25; change on 2023/24; number (in brackets) of offences in 2023/24.
