It can be hard to know what to do if you’re worried someone close is expressing extreme views or hatred, which could lead to them harming themselves or others. Working with other organisations, the police protect vulnerable people from being exploited by extremists through a Home Office programme called Prevent.

Using this website, you can get information and act early to report your concerns. You won’t be wasting anyone’s time, but you might just save lives.
