We have provided a great resource for the upcoming Safer Internet Day 2022 on Tuesday 8^th February. The link on Page 3 will take you to a vast array of key resources and information to help us and our children stay safer online. In this issue, we have also included a wide range of parenting support activities run by a number of key organisations who are experts in this field.

As always, feel free to forward this on to colleagues and families with whom you work and if you would like to promote any activities or opportunities in the Southern Trust area, Page 38 gives some pointers on how to do this
