A ONLINE safety event for parents and carers is being offered as part of the county’s 'It’s Not OK' campaign.

The Cumbria Safeguarding Children Partnership, previously known as the children's board, in partnership with the National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children (NSPCC), are set to launch the second phase of the twelve-month long “It’s Not OK” campaign to tackle child exploitation in Cumbria.

The latest phase of the campaign focuses on online safety and aims to highlight the risks which children and young people face online.

To mark the campaign launch, experts from the partnership and NSPCC will be holding a joint online workshop for local parents and carers to help them spot potential risks with practical tips and advice designed to help keep children safe online.

The online 30-minute event will take place on Microsoft Teams on Tuesday at 6pm.
