With more and more of our lives lived online, the numbers of worries and dangers about the online world increase at a similar rate. With misinformation, scams, bullying and abuse, as well as biases pushed by certain platforms, it can feel like there’s a lot to worry about and that we’re not equipped for it.
In the March Youth Forum meeting we will be asking Somerset’s young people about online safety. Asking them if they feel safe online, if they feel the right support is out there and what support they feel should exist.
We are inviting all of Somerset’s children and young people to join us for this special Youth Forum meeting on:
Wednesday 25 March 5.00-6.30pm over MS Teams
If you know a young person who’d be interested in attending, visit: https://forms.office.com/e/HnK24kDVct
Please share this information and encourage any children and young people you know to join in.
