POLICE have joined forces with Burnley FC to try to drive down hate crime in the town.
The club's Turf Moor stadium is to host a series of drop-in sessions for people who have fallen victim to such crimes.
Officers want people to blow the whistle on people feeling they are being abused because of age, gender, sexual orientation, faith or race.
The surgeries will take place in the leisure complex opposite the James Hargreaves stand on January 12 and 26 and February 9 and 23 from 6pm to 7pm.
