The first leaders meeting of 2017
will be on Thursday 2nd February at the North West Girls Guides
Headquarters in Preston, 7-9pm.
Our guest speaker for the first part
of the evening is Graham Lowe, Online Safeguarding Advisor for the Lancashire
Safeguarding Children Board and he will be discussing Internet Safety at quite
a relevant time as many of your members may have received phones, tablets games
consoles over the Christmas period.
'The session will provide an overview
of Online Safety issues including risk areas, social media, online gaming,
grooming, sexting, bullying and extreme content and will also provide useful
information highlighting supporting areas and resources to support
progression. The session is also an
opportunity for colleagues to directly shape and inform future online safety
priorities across Lancashire by using their experience to highlight what areas
they feel it would be useful to see future support around.'
