Eleanor Bradley, Interim CEO at Nominet, says:
“Internet safety needs to be a priority for young people, but it can be one of the hardest areas for children, carers and teachers to navigate. Each year Safer Internet Day prompts us to consider our own and others’ behaviours online, and how we can be safer digital citizens.
“Given how popular online gaming is, this year’s focus on exploring respect and relationships in that environment is really important and should hopefully inspire conversations and close the knowledge gap for those of us who are less savvy.
“As guardian of the .UK namespace, promoting safety and security is a priority for us and we’re proud to be able to continue to support UKSIC and its Safer Internet Day initiatives, not just as a vocal supporter of their efforts, but as a funder through our public benefit programme too.”
