Prevent
The Prevent programme supports people who are at risk of becoming involved with terrorism through radicalisation, to make Islington a safer place.
Radicalisation and extremism are serious risks to Islington. Our Prevent programme was developed in response to the government’s Contest strategy (2023).
We focus on early intervention, working in partnership with schools, the local community, police and security services to identify and protect vulnerable individuals or groups from being radicalised or drawn into extremism.
Spotting the signs
The Educate Against Hate website provides useful information about possible signs of radicalisation.
