AN OPPORTUNITY to find out more about staying safe on the internet is taking place in Shetland next week.

Public agencies including Shetland Islands Council and the police are supporting a drop in session titled ‘Let’s create a better Internet together’ from 6pm to 8pm on Tuesday 11 February at Islesburgh community centre.

The session in Room 9 will offer young people, parents and carers advice and information about internet safety and issues such as cyber bullying, scams, parental controls and where to report issues.
