We continue to make available by livestream our Morning Worship via YouTube. This can be enjoyed by streaming at home. To share in this time of teaching and worship, you can find our services on our YouTube channel.

Display in church premises and on the Parish website the details of who to contact if there are safeguarding concerns or support needs
Listen to and take seriously all those who disclose abuse
Take steps to protect children and adults when a safeguarding concern of any kind arises, following House of Bishops guidance, including notifying the Diocesan Safeguarding Adviser (DSA) and statutory agencies immediately
Offer support to victims/survivors of abuse regardless of the type of abuse, when or where it occurred
Following advice from the DSA, support and manage the safe involvement of any member of the church community who may pose a risk to children and adults whilst maintaining appropriate confidentiality and the safety of all parties
