Read more...For Hate Crime Awareness Week 2017 Warwickshire County Council have teamed up with Coventry-based ‘The Voice’ star Letitia George and ‘Let It Shine’ star Jordan Charles to create a powerful music single, called Love Instead of Hate (Give it a Try), showing the true pain caused by hate crime.
The single, which has been produced in Warwickshire by music producers Neil Williams and Chris Welch, aims to raise awareness of hate crimes and increase the public reporting of them after a recent study suggested 3 out of every 5 Hate Crimes are not reported to the police.
The song, Love Instead of Hate, was initially inspired by poetry written by Stephen Crowshaw, a Nuneaton and Bedworth Police officer. Stephen’s lyrics were shared with Rugby-based music producer Neil Williams who immediately volunteered his time and considerable expertise to produce the track. Neil was able to very quickly form a team to work on the music, which featured Stourbridge Producer Chris Welch, Singer Songwriter Jordan Charles and Singer Letitia George all who gave their time and expertise to the project for free.
A music video has also been produced by Warwickshire County Council to accompany the single and featuring the acting talents of Young People from Rugby School Avon Valley School and Performing Arts College. You can watch the video below:
