Prevent

Report radicalisation or extremism (Prevent)

The Prevent strategy is focused on safeguarding people from radicalisation or extremism. This includes work to stop people becoming terrorists or supporting terrorism. Kent County Council have the lead role in delivering the Prevent strategy in Kent in accordance with the Prevent duty guidance and are working with partners such as the Police, health and the district councils.

We all have a responsibility to keep our county and the people in it safe. Extremism and radicalisation in our community are very real threats to our society and being aware is the first step. You can help to reduce the threat from terrorism, radicalisation and extremism by being vigilant, knowing what to report and reporting it.
