Press launch of the 'Beware of Everyone!' Site

MSCB is helping to keep young people safe online. We've worked with young people from Abraham Moss High School and the North West Manchester City Learning Centre to design a website 'Beware of Everyone!' about protecting privacy on social networking sites such as Facebook. Along with step by step guidance about keeping information safe, the students have illustrated the advice using short multimedia presentations such as podcasts and animations.

 Young people at launch
Young people at launch During Safer Internet Week, MSCB held  a press launch to raise awareness of the website with local media. All the young people involved presented their work with enthusiasm and professionalism to representatives from local radio and newspapers.
Following the presentation the journalists took the opportunity to interview the young people about their work to gain valuable advice on how to keep safe when using social networking sites.
