This October is Black History Month and it’s an opportunity to celebrate the contributions of people with African and Caribbean heritage to British society. 

We are proud that Paul Canoville, who was the first black football player to sign with Chelsea Football Club, is one of our Fearless Ambassadors.

Fighting hate crime including racism and supporting young people to achieve their best, are key priorities for our charity and for The Paul Canoville Foundation.
 
Crimestoppers and our youth service Fearless are here for everybody, whoever you are, wherever you live, by phone and online 24/7, 365 days a year. Over half a million people contact us every year to give information 100% anonymously. Young people can give information anonymously via Fearless.org, where they can also learn more about keeping themselves and others safe.
