Digital is a fundamental part of our children’s lives now – when the pandemic hit, our lives became underpinned by technology for work, education and relationships. And while it was a huge saviour, many young children were thrust into this online world without a lot of preparation. Parents worry about bullying and graphic content, amongst other things, and that’s where Internet Matters comes in. A non-profit organisation created to help keep families safe online. TalkTalk has been a long-standing partner of Internet Matters - it was founded by the four leading internet providers.

TalkTalk’s Head of CSR, Bronagh McCloskey, talks to Carolyn Bunting, CEO of Internet Matters, about how the organisation has advised parents and carers, even more so during the pandemic, and what we should be looking out for to keep children safe online.
