Ofcom’s Media Use and Attitudes Report for 2024 is here. The UK’s regulator for communications publishes a comprehensive annual compendium of the results of several surveys they’ve conducted regarding the activities and experiences of children when interacting with entertainment: from TV to video games to social media platforms.

Contained in the report are numerous statistics relevant to children’s online safety, with data covering a wide array of topics – such as young people experiencing harassment, their habits in online games and parents’ most common concerns. Our guide gathers up some of the key statistics and lays them out in a quick, easy “cheat sheet” for you to consult at your leisure.
