Please see our reasons for ceasing activity on Twitter/ X

We welcome you to find us on our other online channels and can support organisations who want to do the same.

#HateFreeCornwall

Text reads: Like many organisations, we have been feeling uncomfortable about the recent inciteful and unhelpful comments on Twitter/ X and by its owner Elon Musk. A significant amount of the inflammatory debate and misinformation on this platform we believe has incited the racist extremism we’ve seen erupting across the UK.

Social media platforms have a significant responsibility not to incite racism, hatred and violence and Musk’s comments do nothing to show the kind of leadership we need.

Therefore, we have decided to suspend our activity on the platform indefinitely. You can still follow us online via our website, Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn and YouTube channels.

We would encourage organisations to do the same and can support you with setting up other social media platforms if needed. Please contact our Comms Team at: comms@cornwallvsf.org

On behalf of the #VCSE sector in #Cornwall & IoS, we collectively condemn the racist intolerance, hatred and violence we’ve seen erupting across the UK including in neighbouring Plymouth.

#HateFreeCornwall

the Cornwall flag has the words 'Cornwall, no place for hate' in the top left corner and has 4 chalk drawn hearts in the bottom right corner in reference to hearts drawn in Plymouth on Devon & Cornwall Refugee Support's building on the morning after riots.

A social media post shared by Devon & Cornwall Refugee Support about hearts drawn on its building on the morning after riots in Plymouth.
