Walsall Prevent Programme

Walsall Council have produced a handy guide for Parents and Carers on how parnest can try and keep thier young people safe.

Extremist groups use the internet and social media to spread their ideology and recruit vulnerable young people. They know young people are using the internet much more, quite often by themselves and so utilise these opportunities to exploit and recruit. There is a chance that your child may meet people online or visit websites that could lead them to adopting what is considered extreme views and become radicalised. Whether you’d like to protect your child from being radicalised or you are concerned that they may be at risk, download the guidance on our Snagged page (click on Resources tab) to get expert tips on practical ways you can support them and where you can go for further support.
