HAVE YOU SIGNED UP AS A SUPPORTER OF SAFER INTERNET DAY – WE HAVE!

Guardian Saints are once again, proud to support Safer Internet Day. As in previous years, we will be gathering information from young people in care and those responsible for safeguarding them to understand their views, experiences, and concerns about the online safety impacts in our evolving digital world.

THERE WILL BE PRIZES!!

As in previous years we will be holding a ‘prize draw’ and finding out about the specific issues & challenges faced when keeping young people in care safe online. To enter the prize draw, we will ask a brief series of questions about how the individual uses the internet, their experiences – their likes, dislikes and worries. In previous years we have asked both young people in care for their views as well as Foster Carers – this year we want to ask both young people and social workers. Everyone who responds will be entered into the draw and have the chance of winning Amazon Vouchers of £150, £100 & £50 to spend how they wish.

The draw will be made on Safer Internet Days itself – the 9th of February 2021 – in case you had forgotten!

A report of our findings will be published following the event. So, what have we found out in previous years? A selection of previous responses was published last year – you may be surprised by what some of the young people who took part said….you can get a copy of that report from our website by clicking here

So, please, please, please if you are a fostering service or social worker and you or your young people would like to participate – please get in touch
