Crawley’s Got Talent entries
Acts entered at cypc.co.uk/#talent. An entry can’t be accepted until every performer under 18 has a parent or carer’s signature. These include children’s details: only organisers can see them, so never screenshot or share them.

Meet the members
Who shows on cypc.co.uk under Our members. First name and role only, never a surname, school or photo. Only add someone who has said yes, and if they’re under 18, a parent or carer too. Taking someone off removes them from the website straight away.

Members app maintenance
Puts a sign on the members app saying CYPC is under maintenance. Nobody can sign in while it is on, including you, and it switches itself off when the time is up. The public website keeps working.

Report a concern
Seen something that worries you? Tell the CYPC safeguarding lead. It goes straight to her and no other member sees it.
If someone is in danger right now, call 999. You can also call Childline free on 0800 1111, any time.
Your name is always recorded so the lead can follow up safely, even if you ask to keep your name off it.
While you wait for us
Don't reply, and don't delete anything yet. Write down their username.
Screenshot the messages so there's a record, but never screenshot or send on a nude or sexual picture, even of yourself.
Block them and use the app's own Report button.
If someone is threatening to share a picture of you: don't pay and don't send anything more. It is not your fault and you are not in trouble. Tell a trusted adult today.
Only report things that are true. Reports go to a safeguarding adult and may be passed on to people who can help, such as a school or the police. Making something up on purpose wastes time that could be helping someone who really needs it, and can be treated seriously. If you're not sure whether something counts, still tell us — guessing wrong is fine, making things up isn't.
Seen urbexing being posted?
Tell CYPC about videos and posts of people going into closed or dangerous places around Crawley, or other risky trends. We put them together to show schools, the police and the owners what’s going round, and to work out how to stop it.
Don’t go there, even to see what it’s like.
Don’t like, comment, share or message the account. It only spreads it.
Screenshot the post itself. Never screenshot or send anything sexual, or anyone badly hurt.
If someone is in danger right now, call 999. If it’s about you or someone you know, use A worry instead.
Only organisers and the safeguarding lead see what you send, with your name. Other members don’t.

Everything members have sent · organisers
Make a report
Turn what members have sent into a document. The partners’ version lists the accounts, links and screenshots for schools and the police. The members’ version has the numbers and the ideas, with no names.
Send the schools’ version
It has the numbers, the apps, the places and the ideas, plus what schools can do. It leaves out usernames, links, members’ names and screenshots. If a school needs details about a particular account, ask Vikki to pass them on.
Password for the report
The school gets a private link, not an attachment. The report is locked on this device with the password before it leaves, CYPC only keeps the locked copy, and the link stops working after 30 days. You can cancel it any time below. Give the password by phone or text, not in the same email.

Choose the Search plan. It gives $5 free credit every month, which is about 1,000 searches. Brave asks for a card, but the monthly cap below keeps CYPC inside the free credit.
In the Brave dashboard open API Keys and copy your key. Don't send it to anyone.
In Apps Script open Project Settings → Script Properties → Add script property. Name: SEARCH_API_KEY, value: your key. Save.
Come back here and refresh. It should say Connected. No redeploy is needed for this step.
Web search for membersOff means only organisers can search the web. CYPC search still works.
Live view in the viewerResults open inside CYPC. Live shows the page as it really looks, with its scripts switched off. Off means members only get Reader view (plain text and pictures).
