Let’s Keep Our Community Safe

This week is Prevent Awareness Week, which focuses on working together to stop people from being drawn into terrorism or extremism. Prevent is about safeguarding – helping individuals before harm occurs.

What to look out for:
Sometimes people may become vulnerable to harmful influences. Signs can include:

     Sudden changes in behaviour or attitude

     Becoming isolated from family and friends

     Expressing extreme or hateful views

     Spending a lot of time on websites or social media linked to extremism

These signs don’t always mean something is wrong, but if you’re concerned, it’s better to share your worries.

How to report or get advice:

     In an emergency, call 999

     For non-urgent concerns, call 101

     Report online at www.act.campaign.gov.uk

     You can also speak to your local policing team for advice and support

Prevent is about protecting people and communities. By staying alert and sharing concerns early, we can help keep everyone safe.

Thank you for your continued support.
