Gloucestershire: Council launches support to help keep young people safe online
The webpage gives parents and guardians information about different aspects of online harms, with details of further information and where support is available.
The webpage also brings together links to trusted sources of information and local support relating to wider health and wellbeing recognising the broad range of impacts that using digital devices and online spaces can have for children and young people.
Young Gloucestershire are one of the partners the council consulted with to develop the webpage and help provide expert insight into the needs of children and young people.
Young Gloucestershire provides young people with support and seeks to help them to develop the skills they need to thrive.
As part of the county council’s commitment to stopping the risk of harm to children and young people, the council is also working with Young Gloucestershire to develop and deliver additional youth worker support to those experiencing harm online.
