Online safety

In the run up to Safer Internet Day on Tuesday 7th February, CEOP – the Child Exploitation & Online Protection Centre – has launched ‘Keeping up with the Joneses’, a lighthearted film to get parents and carers thinking about their children’s online lives.

Safer Internet Day 2012 is celebrated worldwide and this year is an opportunity to encourage users young and old to “discover the digital world together safely”. An inspirational array of activity is taking place nationwide, coordinated by the UK Safer Internet Centre, with all activities focusing attention on empowering all generations to safely benefit from the opportunities that the internet offers.

This year, the focus of the day is on connecting different generations to educate each other about Internet Safety. Whether you are 5, 40 or 75 years old, whether you use the internet once a month or several times a day – everyone can help spread the message and help make sure that every child is safe online.
