Ethnic minority media 

The Commission for Racial Equality (CRE) website contains a full listing of ethnic minority media in the UK. See www.cre.gov.uk 

Local ethnic minority media are very important in getting the crime reduction  message over to the community. If you are achieving the level of personal contact suggested above - even at the early stages - why not tell the wider community what you are doing, using local minority media opportunities.

For example, in Bradford, a visit to a mosque can be supported by a local respected and well-known member of the minority ethnic community endorsing your work. Case studies can also be used to put your point across. The message and experiences could then be of interest to media such as the Bradford Asian Eye, Awaaz Asian Voice, Sunrise Radio and the BBC network. These are all local media outlets interested in local stories.
