In the charity's own words
Founded in 2014 in memory Breck Bednar, a 14-year-old boy who was groomed & then murdered by someone he met online, we are at the forefront of efforts to help children & young people develop digital resilience & thrive online. We do this through education & campaigning, taking a 'whole community' approach. We are a South East England based charity, but our work has national relevance & impact.
