Concerned about Harmful Content

Concerned about Harmful Content

A practical toolkit for families

This guide gives families simple and practical ways to support children with harmful or unsettling content they may see online. It explains how to spot worrying content, why it appears, and the small steps children can take to protect their wellbeing.
The resource also supports parents to talk openly with their child, explore safety tools together and build a healthier online feed. We would also recommend sharing our ‘Safe Scrolling’ resource directly with children which gives them an easy guide for spotting harmful content and knowing how to respond to it.
