Workshop delivered by Promo Cymru.
AI is already a normal part of young people’s online world – from schoolwork and creative tools to videos, images and chatbots. This session is about understanding how young people are using AI, what’s safe, what to look out for, and how to stay informed as things change.
We’ll talk in simple terms about what AI actually is, how to spot fake or AI-generated content, and what young people might be using these tools for day to day. The focus is on awareness, safety and confidence – not fear or overwhelm.
This relaxed, friendly session is for anyone in the community who cares about young people – parents, carers, youth workers, teachers, volunteers, grandparents, or anyone who just wants to understand a bit more about the online world.
This session will cover:
-What AI looks like in young people’s online lives
-How to recognise fake images, videos or information
-Common ways young people are using AI tools
-Tips for staying aware and having open conversations about AI
No technical knowledge needed — just an interest in understanding what’s happening online.
Growing Up Online is a free, three-part series of relaxed, welcoming sessions all about understanding young people’s digital lives today.
Across the sessions, we’ll explore the apps, platforms and technologies young people are using, how these shape everyday life and wellbeing, and how adults in the community can feel more confident keeping up with what’s going on online. The sessions are practical, friendly and jargon-free – no tech knowledge needed.
You’re welcome to come to all three sessions or just one — each session stands alone, so you can dip in where it feels most useful.

These sessions are for anyone in the community who cares about young people — parents, carers, grandparents, youth workers, teachers, volunteers, professionals, and anyone who wants a better understanding of what young people are doing online.
You don’t need to be “good with tech” or already know the answers. Curiosity is enough.
These sessions are funded by the UKSPF Community & Place.
