South Wales Police Minorities Support Unit
South Wales Police Minorities Support Unit was set up to actively improve relationships between the police and minority communities and to promote a greater understanding between the communities themselves by maintaining close direct links with ethnic minorities, leaders and organisations within the force area.
The force has policies and procedures for dealing with racially motivated and homophobically motivated incidents which is implemented by the MRIU.
The unit supports and counsels people who experience harassment and wherever appropriate, takes criminal action against offenders. Officers also closely monitor the number of incidents reported and attempt to establish any incident patterns.
The unit helps train South Wales Police officers and other organisations such as probation service in equal opportunity issues, and unit works with other agencies like the Commission of Racial Equality, Unitary Councils and Citizen's Advice Bureaux as well as many community and welfare groups to help raise awareness of the issues surrounding minorities groups using publicity, public lectures, meetings and special events.
