From Thames Valley Police - Parents & Carers Cyber Choices webinars
Following the resounding success and popularity of the Parents & Carers Cyber Choices webinars we ran back in February and March of this year, we have set up four more sessions over the summer.
The Cyber Choices sessions for parents, looking at how we can help to safeguard young people from committing computer misuse offences, and why this needs to happen, can be booked now via this link: Cyber Choices by Police - South East Cyber | Eventbrite
These sessions last around an hour, are totally FREE to attend, and we had such positive responses when we ran these before. They are aimed at parents/carers of a wide range of children/young people, from KS2 pupils (7-8 year olds) right up to college/uni students (18+) Each webinar covers the same material, so they need only sign up for one of them
Colleagues in Cyber Protect are running separate webinars for parents and carers, with a focus on protecting children from online threats. These sessions – also FREE - can be booked here: Online Safety for Parents by Police - South East Cyber | Eventbrite
From the Family Hub Service, RBWM
We are running a survey to find out young people and parents/carers views about young people being safe in the local community. The feedback will help guide the action plan developed by the New ROTH Community Safety Sub Group.
We are also using the survey to find out how other residents feel about their safety in relation to young people (as YP are the biggest cause of residents' worries linked to crime.... based on RBWM survey last year).
Please click here to complete.
Please promote it to young people, their parents and anyone else who lives in RBWM..... even you can fill it in if you are a resident! Ideally people will complete online as it saves a load of time analysing the results.
It is the same online survey for all 3 groups.
Thank you
Danny Gomm
Family Hub Manager
