We are happy to support Safer Internet Day 2021, a campaign that is celebrated globally every year to promote the safe and positive use of technology for children and young people and inspire a national conversation. The campaign focuses on how we can know what to trust online, supporting young people to question, challenge and change the online world. It will explore how influence, persuasion and manipulation can impact young people’s decisions, opinions and what they share online.
