Liverpool Hope approach

The University’s approach to Prevent is primarily one of safeguarding the welfare of our students and staff. We balance this duty against our commitment to freedom of speech and other key legislation.

Prevent Training 

As part of the Government's approach to the Prevent Duty, an e-learning module has been created.

Staff and Students are able to access the training

Concerns over students or colleagues

Staff or students are encouraged to report any concerns they may have by discussing these with the University Prevent Duty Lead James Leyshon leyshoj@hope.ac.uk. 

If you have been affected by a terrorist incident, you should contact Student Life studentlife@hope.ac.uk who will be able to provide support.

You can also report a concern using our online form, which can be found
