The Benefice of the Churches of Axbridge, Shipham and Rowberrow, incorporating the town and villages of Axbridge, Shipham, Rowberrow and Star.
Our Benefice is committed to safeguarding children, young people and adults from harm. We follow the House of Bishops guidance and policies and have our own Parish Safeguarding Officer (PSO). Our Diocese’s safeguarding pages contain vital links and information including contacts for the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor who advises our PSO. If you are concerned that a child or adult has been harmed or may be at risk of harm please contact the PSO, Julie Leader, on 07514 036134 or [email protected], or the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor, Ben Goodhind, on 07834 514842 or 01749 588917, or [email protected]. If you have immediate concerns about the safety of someone, please contact the police and your local authority’s children or adult social care services.
