Online Safety Consultant Chief I-venger @I-Vengers

As an Online Safety Consultant and the founder of the i-vengers programme, I am passionate about creating a safer digital environment for everyone. My work is dedicated to empowering young people, parents, educators, and organisations to navigate the online world safely and responsibly, promoting a culture of positive digital citizenship.With over a decade of experience in the field of online safety, I have collaborated with a diverse range of schools, charities, and organisations to develop and deliver bespoke training sessions, craft effective digital safeguarding policies, and provide strategic consultancy. My mission is to build digital resilience and equip all users with the knowledge and tools necessary to thrive safely online.The i-vengers programme is at the heart of my work. This peer-led initiative empowers students to become online safety ambassadors within their schools and communities. i-vengers equips young people with the skills to promote positive digital behaviour among their peers, fostering an environment of mutual respect and safety online.Building on the success of i-vengers, I also launched i-vengers Cymru, a tailored version of the programme specifically designed for schools in Wales. i-vengers Cymru integrates Welsh language and culture into the online safety framework, ensuring that the programme is both relevant and impactful for Welsh-speaking students.In addition to these initiatives, I developed the i-vengers Special Agents programme, which focuses on providing online safety education tailored specifically for children with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND). Special Agents ensures that all students, regardless of their abilities, receive the knowledge and support they need to navigate the digital world safely. This programme emphasises accessibility and inclusion, helping schools create a safe and supportive online environment for every child.
