a new initiative to help children keep themselves safe

The film 'Teigan gets lost' has been made by Child's Eye Media to explain the new Safer strangers, safer buildings code to children as young as three.

Part 1 shows 6-year old Teigan using the code when she gets lost in a supermarket.

Part 2 shows Greater Manchester policewoman PC Helena Hodgson (who helped to develop the initiative) explaining the Safer strangers, safer buildings strategy to a group of school children.

‘Teigan gets lost’ is one of several child-friendly, award-winning films specially produced by Child's Eye Media to get across tricky messages to children without worrying them.
The other films are:
Street safety with Teigan (about the Green Cross Code and meeting a dog for the first time)
Daisy’s and Mikey’s fireworks party
Morgan at the seaside
India’s Sunday funday (about keeping healthy).

The film ‘Teigan gets lost’ features in both of the following compilations:

Dr. Tanya Byron,

presenter of BBC’s ‘Little Angels’ and author of the government’s Byron Review into child internet safety:

‘I fully endorse the campaign, and would encourage all children to watch the ‘Teigan gets lost’ film and download the code with their parents, teachers and carers’

Michele Elliott,

Executive Director, KIDSCAPE

‘Teaching young children about safety issues needs to be done sensitively and in a low-key manner which is entertaining, fun and age-appropriate. The ‘Safer strangers, safer buildings’ programme is all these things and we welcome it and congratulate Child’s Eye Media’.

Liam McGurrin:

Children’s Safety Education Foundation Trustee,

‘The advice delivered by this campaign could help save children’s lives.’

‘The best way parents can help children stay safe is to teach them how to cope with danger, through their own example and by giving simple rules – and making sure children know and remember them.’
