Liz talks to Fullhurst students about social media

 

On Friday I held my second consultation event with local students about the impacts of social media and screen use on their health.

This time I was at Fullhurst Community College and had a really interesting chat with the students. They told me all the things they thought were good and bad about social media, who they take advice and learn about social media from and how to keep themselves safe online.

Over the coming weeks and months I will be carrying out more consultation events with students across Leicester West. The feedback that I gather will be submitted to the Science and Technology Committee’s inquiry into the impacts of social media and screen use on young people’s health.
