"Social inclusion and the empowerment of young people and women from all backgrounds are essential to solving the root causes of radicalisation, extremism and hate crime.

Rt Hon Theresa May MP and Former Prime Minister"I personally see this as an excellent example of the importance of community-led schemes in tackling extremism online; thank you for your work."
Rt Hon. David Cameron Former MP and Former Prime Minister"...the effects of 7/7 have also had an extraordinary effect on her life. That's because Sajda now runs one of the most important NGOs in the country: The JAN Trust. It’s a charity dedicated to fighting and preventing extremism in the UK..."
Farrah Storr, Editor in Chief Cosmopolitan Magazine and Author"I appreciate that this project has taken a direct approach to provide women with the relevant tools, knowledge and support to positively engage with young people on their online interactions. Your project is playing an important role in helping build their capability to safeguard children and young people."
Baroness Joanna Shields, Minister for Internet Safety and Security"The wide ranging work of your organisation that you describe to tackle extremism in communities, and particularly among Muslim women, is commendable."
Clive Betts MP, Chair of the Communities and Local Government Committee"I was struck by your reference to enabling vulnerable communities to feel part of society rather than apart from it. It is salutary to consider the experiences that must have led the Trust to describe its work in such terms."
Justine Greening MP, Former Secretary of State for Education and Minister for Women and Equalities"The Metropolitan Police Service is working closely with JAN Trust. The work that JAN Trust carries out with women and young people is a great contribution to community safety."
