Swindon Safeguarding Partnership

Prevent is one strand of the UK’s wider counter-terrorism strategy known as CONTEST.

Current national threat level is SEVERE - an attack is highly likely.

The purpose of Prevent is to safeguard and support people to stop them from becoming terrorists or supporting terrorism of any form. It aims to:

• tackle the causes of radicalisation and respond to the ideological challenge of terrorism.
• safeguard and support those most at risk of radicalisation through early intervention, identifying them and offering support.
• enable those who have already engaged in terrorism to disengage and rehabilitate.
