Respectme Workshops

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: 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
• The different ways you can respond if your child is being bullied, or is involved in the bullying of others
