Thursday 18th June 2026
12.30pm-1.30pm
Session details: Join us for a powerful and practical session delivered by Essex Police, shining a spotlight on the “Fake or Real? Know the Deal” campaign. This is an initiative created in partnership with BT and EE to tackle the fast‑growing risks of deepfake technology. This session will explore how AI‑manipulated images and videos are increasingly used to spread misinformation, fuel bullying and harassment, damage reputations, and even create explicit fake images of children.
Essex Police will walk you through real‑world risks, key warning signs, and the vital tools available to help families, such as the Report Remove service. Learn how to recognise deepfakes, support young people to stay safe online, and work together to build a digital world where children feel informed, confident, and protected.
