This is a message from Detective Sergeant on the Northumbria Police Prevent Team with a simple request for communicating with parents and guardians as we approach the long summer break.
Attached is a digital leaflet designed specifically for parents, guardians, family and friends. We’re using it to encourage the public to access information about Prevent via various pathways including ACT EARLY
ACT EARLY is a website designed for the public, to inform and encourage them to make Prevent referrals if they have worries about their children, family or friends.
We’re seeing a rise in Prevent referrals, particularly from schools, which is a positive thing as it means more professionals are recognising this crucial safeguarding concern and therefore more young vulnerable people are being diverted into positive pathways.
We’re really keen to encourage parents, guardians etc. to learn about Prevent and to feel empowered to make referrals themselves
