Hectors World Safety Button

This is simply a small download which can be installed on any computer which is used by a child. It provides them with a recognisable icon which can be clicked if they find themselves somewhere on the internet which makes them feel uncomfortable in any way. The screen is immediately replaced with an attractive underwater scene which also contains reassuring messages which will encourage them to seek help from an adult.

You can find out more from the Hectors World Website
