  7. Concerns raised of Christchurch copycat attackpublished at 07:45 Greenwich Mean Time 22 March 2019

    Speaking anonymously to the BBC the man, who used to work for the Home Office, said far-right extremists were seeking to target communities in Yorkshire.

    He said: "Since what happened in Christchurch I think Muslim communities in the UK are now at greater risk of being targeted by perverted far-right, ideologies.

    "The far-right is becoming more organised because of the internet, the problem isn't going away and the number of people subscribing to far-right ideologies is increasing."

    Shahab Adris is from MEND (Muslim Engagement and Development), which works to raise awareness of Islamophobia.

    He says: "We've seen, over the last three or four days, there have been a number of attacks against Muslims and Muslim mosques already after Christchurch.

    "We've come across parents who are explaining to their children not to go out after dark and young women who used to go out on their own, now going out in groups.

    "We are witnessing a change of behaviour in Muslims."

    A home care worker has been criticised after saying "Ey up chuff nut" to a disabled man.

    A relative of the man highlighted the carer's language as part of a report into home care in Sheffield.

    Independent body Healthwatch said families wanted care workers to improve their communication skills, especially when looking after those with dementia.

    The watchdog said firms needed to be clear on how they vetted and recruited employees.

    The woman who complained about the term directed at her relative said it would be a beneficial if his care workers spoke to him differently.

    The comments are part of a wide ranging report by Healthwatch, which has gathered the views and experiences of users of home care and relatives, says the Local Democracy Reporting Service.

    It said families wanted to see more general dementia training and specialist training in other areas, such as physical disabilities, mental health and long-term health conditions such as diabetes.
