It’s also united me with Maddie Moate, a presenter and YouTube Educator who I had the pleasure of working with last year during the NSPCC / Child Helpline International Youth Shadow Conference.

To mark Safer Internet Internet Day, Maddie and I thought it would be great to discuss and raise awareness of some of the key issues – and potential solutions – to ensure everyone can enjoy a safer Internet experience at home, or when out and about.

In this short video below you’ll hear us discuss how parents can make sure the family is protected online, safer practices when using social media, ways to broach the subject of online safety with your children and much more.

You can find us both on Twitter too – @tonyatavg & @maddiemoate
