Counter-terrorism police are using Netmums to highlight the risks of online radicalisation among children.
UK law enforcement are growing increasingly concerned about the number of under-18s being groomed by extremists, particularly on the far right.
In the year to March 2021, 13% of suspects arrested for terrorism offences were aged under 18, compared to 5% the previous year. Children were also the only age group to show an increase in this period.
Of the 21 children arrested up to March 2021, 15 or 71% were linked to extreme right-wing beliefs, and the proportion has been growing since 2015.
In that year less than 20% of under-24s were held for far right beliefs, rising to 60% in 2020.
