Three-charity consortium pooling public-facing safety work and programme resources

UK Safer Internet Centre (UKSIC)

The UK Safer Internet Centre is a consortium of Childnet, the Internet Watch Foundation and SWGfL. The retained records describe joint safer-internet projects, a formal partnership agreement and Nominet support, connecting education, reporting and safety-service organisations through a shared programme rather than merging them into one charity.

Pledge, annual amounts and programme boundary

Nominet announced a GBP5.1 million three-year pledge in October 2021. Its annual tables report GBP1.599 million for 2023/24 and GBP1.647 million for 2024/25; these are not extra awards to add to the pledge or SWGfL-only payments. A 2025 retrospective pairs the programme's end with language about continuing support without a renewed amount or schedule. Childnet's report discloses a formal agreement with the other two partners and describes its role as part-funded by Nominet. The agreement text and recipient allocation were not acquired.
