Prevent and Channel Workshop
Our final session of the week focused on Prevent and the role of the Channel Panel. The session explored how Prevent supports individuals who may be vulnerable to radicalisation, the importance of early intervention, and the responsibilities of practitioners in recognising and reporting concerns. Practitioners deepened their understanding of how Channel brings partner agencies together to assess risk and implement tailored support, whilst ensuring that individuals receive proportionate, person-centred interventions. The session also explored indicators of vulnerability and the importance of professional curiosity when working with both children and adults in safeguarding contexts.
