Safety tips
We've developed this website as a secure place for enterprising young people to share ideas, but we should all follow some simple rules to stay safe and get the most out of websites:
Personal details: don't give out your full name or personal details such as your mobile number or email online. You won't want strangers getting hold of information about you.
Tell someone: if you spot anything you're worried about on this site or any other site. It's best to let a parent, carer or teacher know as soon as possible.
Meeting-up: we want young people to connect with each other, and to develop networking skills, but don't arrange to meet with people you've found online unless you've checked with a parent or carer first.
If it's good, share it: if you find a really helpful website, or have some tips for making enterprising ideas happen, make sure you pass them on to your friends and via the connect me section of this site.
