The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, how much funding her Department has allocated to preventing Islamophobia.

Answered by Alex Norris

In 2025/26, up to £650,000 of funding is available to the British Muslim Trust to monitor hate targeting Muslims and facilitate support for victims. The government will provide the police with funding of £80,000 for True Vision, an online hate crime reporting portal, designed so that victims of hate crime do not have to visit a police station to report.
