Vodafone Launches Breakfast Club Campaign for Safer Internet Day 2026

To mark Safer Internet Day 2026, we launched Vodafone’s new Breakfast Club campaign, featuring broadcaster Laura Whitmore and leading child psychologist Dr Elly Hanson, featuring limited edition ‘chatbot’ breakfast cereals to help explain the ‘ingredients’ of AI chatbots, highlighting what they’re ‘a good source’ of and what they’re ‘free from’.

Research reveals that 37% of 11–16-year-olds have confided in an AI chatbot, with one in three (33%) sharing something they wouldn’t tell parents, teachers, or friends.

The campaign comes as VodafoneThree urges regulators and the Government to introduce additional safety measures alongside the Online Safety Act to better protect children from the risks of unsafe AI chatbot design.
