Girlguiding Glos partners with The Cyber Trust
Moments that make the mission worthwhile!
Girlguiding Gloucestershire has partnered with The Cyber Trust www.thecybertrust.org, promoting online safety using the SpeakOut! app. As part of this activity, they’re creating a brand new badge to demonstrate internet safety.
Check out the latest news and updates on their website, where you’ll also find inspiration for activities that Brownies, Guides, Rangers, and individuals can take part in.
For example, Girl Guiding SW England has worked with Government Communications Headquarters (GCHQ), the National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) and CyberFirst to develop an activity pack known as SWEBOTS. On the net offers a range of activities for all ages which provide new ways of learning about computer systems and cyber security – and you don’t need computer skills or access to computers or the internet to get involved! https://www.girlguidingsouthwest.org.uk/member-information/region-resources/swebots/97-on-the-net
The SWEBOTS have been created to encourage you to enjoy activities relating to Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths (STEM). Each Girlguiding Section has its own SWEBOT to help you identify fun things to do which are suitable for your particular Section. There is also LeaderBOT who is always around to provide advice to help you get the most out of the Resources in a safe environment, ProfBOT who explains the activities and the results you may see, and InfoBOT who comes to you fully equipped with lots of useful, additional information on the various tasks which the SWEBOTS suggest. The Resources and badges can be found on the Region’s online shop
