We work with a range of key partners across the country, including
organisations representing Muslims, to tackle a variety of issues of
radicalisation and extremism. We run Prevent-related programmes in local
government, health, education, prisons, youth justice, immigration and
charities. Since early 2012, Prevent local projects have reached over 55,000
people. Many of these projects include working with Muslims and organisations
that represent Muslims. We work with local partners and propose suitable local
Prevent projects, which include, for example, projects in madrassahs.

No recent formal assessment has been made of community feedback on the
Prevent strategy but we seek the views of British Muslims on specific issues
relating to Prevent
