Welcome to the latest episode in our side series, Safeguarding Shorts, where we take a closer look at specific safeguarding topics and connect them to everyday life.

In this episode, we focus on Social Media and Safeguarding, exploring how online platforms can pose risks to children and young people, and what warning signs to look out for. We unpack how social media can be linked to issues such as grooming, online exploitation, and harmful content, while also considering the role it can play in positive communication and support.

As always, we’ll break down key legislation, offer practical advice, and aim to provide a clearer understanding of this increasingly relevant and complex issue.
