Sarah Childs has compiled on Facebook an album with racist incidents that people have shared on social media after Britain voted to leave the European Union.
The album quickly became a community group under the name "Worrying Signs."
"We want this group to be a safe space where you can share information and post pictures and screen grabs of any worrying signs or incidents of racism / xenophobia you've come across since the EU referendum results," the group said in a post.
Racist graffiti with the words "Go Home" have been smeared on a Polish community building in Hammersmith. The Polish embassy said it was "shocked and deeply concerned" about reports of xenophobic abuse:
