Signing the wall to keep children safe on internet
10:32am Friday 15th February 2008
Comments (0)SPORTS personalities from Worcester's rugby, cricket and basketball clubs were among dozens of people to sign a special graffiti wall in the city.
The wall was outside the Guildhall yesterday to help promote the need to protect children using the internet.
The event, called Who's Watching Your Children? Keep IT Safe, was organised by the Worcestershire Safeguarding Children Board, and its partner agencies.
The graffiti wall allowed people to sign up to an e-safety pledge, consisting of 12 principles and guidelines that agencies across Worcestershire, including voluntary organisations, parents, children and young people will commit to, ensuring that children and young people are safeguarded.
