Dear Parent/Carers
In conjunction with respectme, Scotland’s anti-bullying service parents and carers are invited to attend two forthcoming  workshops being held across regional venues.
Online safety:Â This interactive and hands on workshop lasting two hours will explore a range of important issues related to navigating the ever changing online world safely. The event will focus on:
- How young people use technology- the risks/challenges
- Popular social media apps- the pros and cons
- Practical advice on parental controls, privacy and safety settings  with an opportunity to explore your own social media settings
- Talking to your children about keeping safe online
Responding to Bullying: This 90 minute workshop is designed to:
- Increase your awareness of bullying behaviour
