Welcome to our "Being safe online" page!
In these challenging times, young people are connecting online even more than usual. That can be great, however it can also present new challenges. To develop safe online habits and enjoy a positive online experience, we encourage you to take the Be Safe Online course. Also, remember that online meetings (chat or video) among Scouts should always be organised by a Scout leader and with the supervision of a parent or guardian.
