Dear Barking & Dagenham Borough Council,

I am a research student at the London School of Economics,
currently researching about the British counter-terrorism
programme. At the moment my focus is on the Prevent Programme in
London, and I was wondering if you could help me get some
information I need. Specifically, I would need to know:

1 - The Prevent Budget for this Council
2- A list of organizations, societies, activities that receive
Prevent funding in the areas covered by the council. And 3- how
much money they receive.
4- Any action plan, or report on the Prevent programme that is not
readily available by the council website.

Thank you in advance for your help.

Yours faithfully,

Maria Carolina Werdine
