  • Every Child Safe Online

    Published 04/06/26

    'Internet Matters' have launched a new advice hub, Every Child Safe Online: which offers accessible practical resources and guidance for parents and carers of children with additional needs.

    Children with additional needs may experience the online world differently from their peers. Some children may spend more time online, be more trusting, compliant or anxious, or feel less in control of their online experiences.

    As parents and carers, it can be difficult to know how best to support your child, especially when much of the online safety advice available takes a “one size fits all” approach.

    The resources are designed to help you support your child to have safer, more positive online experiences, with guidance that recognises that every child is different.
