Staying Safe Online Share and Learn (AbilityNet - West Yorkshire) September 30th 2025 at 11:00 - online event via Video Communication Platform ZOOM.
Carers UK is working in partnership with AbilityNet to run a helpful and informative session for carers in West Yorkshire, focused on helping
carers and the people they care for to stay safe online.
The session will explore the many ways scammers try to target people – from financial and energy scams to fake websites, QR codes, and suspicious messages. You will learn how to spot the warning signs, how to protect yourself and the person you care for,
and what to do if something goes wrong. We will also explain how to report a scam and where to find support.
There will be time for questions, so if you have experienced a scam or have something specific you would like to ask, please email Carers UK at digital.products@carersuk.org so we can ensure
your questions are answered. You will have the opportunity to ask more questions during the session.
