“Now, more than ever, the responsibility is on all of us to raise awareness of the warning signs of radicalisation, and safeguard our communities from the dangers of violent extremism.
If we can stop even just one person from falling victim to radicalisation, then our work will have been worthwhile. That individual could have irrevocably changed the lives of hundreds had they eventually committed an act of terrorism.”
