The Home Office provides funding to ‘Prevent priority areas’ deemed to have a higher risk of radicalisation. Each priority area has a dedicated Prevent co-ordinator post funded by the Home Office and employed by the local authority. Local authorities in other areas may also fund their own Prevent posts. The Home Office does not hold detailed employment information on all of these posts.
