Lovely to sit down for a proper chat with Lord Hanson @RTHondavehanson, @ukhomeoffice Minister, a couple of weeks’ ago. Plenty to discuss with our campaigns and counter-extremism work- thank you for your time!

Great to catch up with @AlexJJNorris, the @ukhomeoffice Minister for Border Security, last week. A great champion for our cause, and a lot of interesting areas for discussion given his current portfolio! @ResilienceUnity

Grateful to @IainDale for a very thoughtful interview last night, allowing me to share my thoughts on the attack in Manchester. Beyond the initial shock, this should absolutely serve as a clarion call for all to double down on our efforts to challenge the spread of extremism.
Yesterday’s attack on a Manchester synagogue is a stark reminder of the threats our communities face. Our founder, @travisfrain, spoke with @IainDale on @LBC @LBCNews about resilience, solidarity, and support for those affected. Watch a clip of the interview below.

The team has been appalled to observe the incident unfolding today in Manchester. The Chair of our @UKParliament APPG on Terrorism & Security, @AndyMacNaeMP , has issued a statement, an excerpt of which can be read in brief below. The full statement is available on his page.

Currently in Birmingham sharing my story with students to raise awareness of radicalisation & extremism, and just seen the awful scenes unfolding back home- with methodology all too similar to the attack I was involved in. Dreadful to see, and just brings it all rushing back.
I’m appalled by the attack at a synagogue in Crumpsall. The fact that this has taken place on Yom Kippur, the holiest day in the Jewish calendar, makes it all the more horrific. My thoughts are with the loved ones of all those affected, and my thanks go to the emergency services and all the first responders.

Last month, we were hosted in Parliament by @Matt_VickersMP, Shadow Minister for Crime, Policing, and Fire, for a roundtable to explore how Governments can better support victims of terrorism to become changemakers and positive advocates in the fight against violent extremism.

Grateful to @coalition for their continued collaboration and efforts to amplify the voices of those affected by terrorism
Westminster Bridge attack survivor Travis Frain discovered he wasn't alone in his experience. His journey from isolation to connecting with others reminds us of the importance of survivors sharing their stories. @travisfrain

If you watched the recent debate on support for terror survivors, you may have heard @AndyMacNaeMP reference the Survivors' Charter and its eight key principles. Created by @Survivors_a_t the Charter outlines what effective, compassionate support for survivors should look like.
