Online safety guides

The #WakeUpWednesday campaign is viewed as one of the most trusted and reputable learning resources in the UK, providing expert advice on the latest platforms and online risks that parents and carers need to know about through a beautifully engaging and content-rich design. A new guide is released every Wednesday.

All guides are available in PDF form below:

Deepfakes can make it appear that someone has said or done something they haven’t, using AI to create increasingly convincing fake images, videos and audio.

As this technology becomes easier to access, children and young people may encounter risks ranging from online bullying and impersonation to scams and fabricated explicit content.

Our latest #WakeUpWednesday guide explores:
• AI-enabled bullying
• Cloned voices and fake family scams
• Bogus celebrity endorsements
• Fabricated images and videos
• Extortion and digital blackmail

It also offers practical advice for parents and educators on recognising warning signs, protecting personal information and talking to young people about responsible AI use.
