  • Hold The Phone: What age should children be on social media?📱
    Jan 2 2026

    Listen to a star-studded panel discuss growing evidence of how social media is harming children and young people, and what government, schools, mental health professionals, and civil society can do together to address this national challenge.

    This event came at a timely moment as the Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Bill proceeded through the House of Lords, providing a space to examine the case for raising the age of access to social media, and to consider how policy can better safeguard the wellbeing and development of children.

    The CSJ report, Change the Prescription, published last year, found that change is required to protect children from exposure to harmful online content, which can have a detrimental impact on their mental health. Read it at centreforsocialjustice.org.uk.

    Panel:

    • Lord Nash, Former Parliamentary Under Secretary of State for Schools Sophie Winkleman, actress, charity patron, and campaigner
    • Simon Bailey CBE, QPM, DL, Chair of the International Policing and Public Protection Research Institute
    • Dr Becky Foljambe, NHS GP Partner and founder of Health Professionals for Safer Screens
    • Jonathan Hinder MP, Pendle and Clitheroe
