Prevent

The current threat from Terrorism and Extremism in the United Kingdom is real and
severe and can involve the exploitation of vulnerable people, including children and young people.

 

Prevent is one part of the government’s overall counter-terrorism strategy, CONTEST. The aim of Prevent is to:

  • tackle the causes of radicalisation
  • respond to the challenges that terrorist ideology may present
  • safeguard and support those most at risk of radicalisation through early intervention
  • support those who have already engaged in terrorism to disengage and rehabilitate

 

If you need to speak to someone about radicalisation or extremism, you can:

Call 999 or the police anti-terrorist hotline on 0800 789 321 to report an immediate threat to life or property.

 

Call the YMCA Designated Safeguarding Lead if the concern relates to a YMCA service user, staff member, volunteer, or activities taking place within YMCA buildings – Kelly Jackson, Safeguarding Lead – 07921 264060.
