Prevent

What to do if you have concerned about someone?

If you are worried that someone you know is being radicalised, act early and seek advice. Anyone can be referred to Prevent and anyone can make a referral. There is a simple referral process in place for adults and children if you have any immediate or ongoing concerns.

To make a referral, contact Nottinghamshire Police Prevent Team. Telephone: 101 ext. 800 2962/2963 or email prevent@nottinghamshire.pnn.police.uk (link opens in email app). You can speak to the team informally before making a full referral. You can also use this form: East Midlands Prevent Referral Form (Nottinghamshire County Council link opens in new window).

Referring someone ensures they get the help they need to keep them and others safe. You can also call the Act Early support line on 0800 011 3764, 9am to 5pm every day to share your concern in confidence with a specially trained officer.

There is more guidance on the ACT Early (link opens in new window) website and on the government website at: Get help for radicalisation concerns (link opens in new window).
