City-based Internet safety centre risks losing EU funding

A national Internet Safety centre based in Exeter is at risk of losing an important source of funding.


The centre helps keep children safe online and has been very much involved in the current debate over the accessibility of child sex abuse images on the Web.

It receives no public money but DOES get funding from the European Union, which has to be re-applied for at the end of this year - and with a smaller EU budget available for the next six years, there's concern that the money won't be available.
