Combating hate speech and extremism: venue guidance

Establishments and venues have a role to play in disrupting extremists and denying them a platform to promote hate and division.

This guidance is a practical tool to help facilities and events managers assess bookings and identify any risks from extremist speakers before confirming an event.

It will not apply to all events, but provides a helpful start if you have concerns or are unsure about a group or individuals wishing to use your venue.
