Safe Scrolling
This guide helps parents and teachers support young people to recognise harmful or unsettling content online and understand how it can affect their feelings and wellbeing. It explains the subtle signs that content is unsafe, why it may feel relatable and what young people can do to protect themselves, including muting, reporting and choosing safer content.
It also provides simple steps for adults to use when talking with young people about what they see online and how to respond when something feels worrying. The guide includes clear advice on getting help, reaching out for support and reminding young people that they do not have to manage difficult feelings on their own.
