If you're worried someone might be radicalised (PREVENT strategy)
What you should do if you are concerned about someone
If you have a concern that someone may be vulnerable to being drawn into terrorism or extremism, fill out a Prevent referral form and email to: FIMUNorth@CTPNE.police.uk
Anyone can refer an individual who they feel is vulnerable to radicalisation.
Referring someone does not automatically make them a criminal. The goal of the referrals is safeguarding individuals and protecting the public.
