Breck's Last Game

Trigger Warning - grooming, coercive behaviour + violence. This film would be rated 15 if shown in cinemas.
Breck’s Last Game, is a short film about 14-year-old Breck Bednar who was murdered by a man he met on a gaming site.
The film was made to raise awareness of online grooming and carries an important message - do you really know who your online friends are?
The video was given to schools across Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland from September last year as part of a wider resource pack and has already been shown to thousands of children in controlled screenings. Many secondary schools now intend to embed the resource into their yearly curriculum and have spoken of the impact it has had.
We cannot expect, nor can we mandate children and young people to understand they have been groomed or that what is happening to them is abuse. Nor can we expect parents to interpret and analyse with perfect clarity the different risks posed by different channels that groomers use.
What we can do is make advice as accessible as possible. That’s what we hope to achieve with Breck’s Last Game, while addressing the under-reporting of Child Sexual Exploitation (CSE) among boys which continues to be an issue for CSE services nationally and locally.
We are positive with the film going public that millions of young people can also be educated and empowered to realise that they can play an important role in the well-being and safety of themselves and friends by recognising signs of grooming and exploitation and disclosing concerns to a trusted adult, school, police and CEOP.
We hope that Breck’s lessons reach far and wide so that children themselves help stop online predators from harming children.
The film has been made with the support of Breck’s mother Lorin LaFave and The Breck Foundation.
