Cybercrime is one of the fastest-growing threats in our society today. From online fraud and romance scams to identity theft, privacy breaches, and more serious offences, the digital world presents real risks that affect people of all ages.

This vital workshop, led by Mick Harrison from the Devon & Cornwall Police Cyber Protect Team, will cover:

  • What cybercrime is and how it’s evolving
  • Common scams and how to spot them
  • How criminals target individuals and communities
  • Practical steps to protect yourself and those around you
