“I learned from the Breck Foundation what the word grooming meant and what impact it can have on people who are affected by it.”
- Kai, age 11.
“I learned all the signs of grooming and I think it was very helpful as I can tell my friends outside of school about it and feel safer. It was scary but I know how to be aware of it now.”

Game Over: a Breck Foundation play
The award-winning playwright Mark Wheeller wrote the powerful verbatim play ‘Game Over’ based on Breck's story for secondary school students. The play uses the real-life words of Breck, Breck's family and the predator.
These student-led performances, which can reach whole-school groups, parents, and teachers, allow for students to become immersed in the story while learning how to stay safe online.
To accompany Game Over, we have created a series of supporting workshops for students to attend, designed to:
-
explore issues around online behaviour and grooming
-
educate about potential victims, predators, signs of grooming and how to seek help
-
empower young people to speak up when concerned and giving them the tools to do so
