Safer 6: Help keep children safe online with a free Online Safety (Extremism) and Prevent webinar for parents and adult community members
If you are a parent or carer, do you know what your children are doing online?
Sandwell Council’s Prevent Team are taking part in Sandwell’s Safer 6 campaign by offering free online safety (Extremism) and Prevent sessions. Parents/carers and adult members of the community can join the free online session on 1st December 2022 and receive tips and advice to keep young people safe online.
Top tips include:
Parents are encouraged to talk openly to their children about their online activity and help them understand what is safe and unsafe. The internet is a great tool, but can also be a tricky place to navigate with some misleading information.
The sessions will be delivered on Microsoft Teams and will provide key information on popular apps and social media, as well as links for further advice and support. If you need help to get onto Microsoft Teams, please email prevent_inbox@sandwell.gov.uk or call 07717 427057.
Sandwell Council’s Prevent team, which works with partners and communities to stop people being drawn into extremism and terrorism, will also be explaining what Prevent is and how to report concerns.
The session times are as follows:
