Internet Matters
For us, safety matters
Keeping you safe is always top of our list and in 2018 we partnered with Internet Matters, an organisation which gives parents loads of tips and advice for protecting children online. With the right knowledge and safeguards, the digital world can be a place of fun, learning and inspiration for children.
By linking up with Internet Matters we’ve created bitesize training packs for all our store staff, so they’ll be on-hand to answer any questions you have. Plus, you can use this portal to keep yourself updated with the latest research and our online support.
