GOV.UK - Kids Online Safety

Last updated by jodie.attreed@essex.gov.uk on Wednesday, April 29, 2026

 

The government launched a new website on 16 February 2026 to support families help keep their children safe online – the website offers:

 

  • tips for parents’ conversations with their children
  • actions to support each stage of their child’s life
  • parental controls information

 

They are also signposting to trusted resources from charities and third parties, where parents can access other forms of support (like speaking to an expert).

 

The website will continue to grow and be developed this year, supporting the Online Safety Act and wider government aims.
