It is critical that Local Authorities, the Police and statutory partners work together, in light of the Prevent Duty, to prevent people from being drawn into terrorism. Community organisations have an important role to play in building resilience in their local areas.

We do not provide a breakdown of Prevent funding for individual organisations as this would indicate the balance of where our resource is targeted and indicate where the greatest risk lies.
