Kidsmart: Welcome. Online safety. Childnet International. Safeguarding in schools: best practice. Helpline - UK Safer Internet Centre. Do you have a cyberbullying or digital safety concern? The Safer Internet Centre has been co-funded by the European Commission to provide a Helpline for professionals working with children and young people in the UK with any online safety issues they may face themselves or with children in their care.

We provide support with all aspects of digital and online issues such as those which occur on social networking sites, cyber-bullying, sexting, online gaming and child protection online. The Helpline aims to resolve issues professionals face about themselves, such as protecting professional identity and reputation, as well as young people in relation to online safety. Where possible, queries will be responded to within 3 hours (during the office opening hours). It is primarily a signposting, advice, and mediation service, any urgent risk to children should be dealt with via normal safeguarding procedures.

We are open Monday to Friday, 10am to 4pm. Support the Helpline.
