Safeguarding Children: Pornography, Sex, Pressures and Social Networks

Following the very successful YHMAST Safeguarding Children in a Digital World Conference, we are pleased to offer the opportunity to attend a regional ‘Masterclass’ which will further explore one of the key safeguarding issues raised on the day.

This Masterclass will be delivered by Brook who has been at the forefront of providing wellbeing and sexual health support for young people for over 50 years. Their services in local communities, their education programmes, their training for professionals and their campaigning work means that young people are better equipped to make positive and healthy lifestyle choices.

The aim of this workshop is to raise awareness of the impact of pornography on young people’s sexual health and to enable participants to gain knowledge and skills about the influences and pressures that young people face as they develop and explore their emerging sexuality.   

Appropriate for both front line practitioners and managers, the event will consist of a presentation, discussion and the opportunity to look at resources and practice tools which can be used with young people.
