The Prevention Foundation CIC is a leading national resource dedicated to arming youngsters with the information they need to live happy, healthy and successful lives.
Created in 2016, the foundations members work within communities distributing a wealth of safety information on topics affecting disadvantaged areas of the UK including knife crime, bullying, drugs and alcohol.
Our aim is to reduce potential harm to young and vulnerable members of society. Our range of awareness projects support school personnel, Social and Health Education (PSHE) lessons, partnerships with local authorities and national awareness campaigns, all in a bid to boost the self-esteem and emotional wellbeing of the young.
"It is really important to us to help give back to the community and help to keep our young people safe, especially from the dangers they face online. The Foundation work with a range of professionals and the media to help get their message to youngsters."
