We keep our Church Near You pages up to date with the latest service information and events information but please check out our website for further information or contact the Benefice Office.
Our parishes of Boxford, Edwardstone, Groton, Little Waldingfield and Newton are committed to safeguarding children, young people, and adults from harm. We follow the House of Bishops guidance and policies and have our own Safeguarding Officer. Our Diocese of St. Edmundsbury & Ipswich’s safeguarding pages contain vital links and information including contacts for the Diocesan Safeguarding Officer who advises our parish Safeguarding Officer. If you are concerned that a child or adult has been harmed or may be at risk of harm, please contact the parish Safeguarding Officer, Tom Bowen 07588 871220 or [email protected], or the Diocesan Safeguarding Officer, Karen Galloway 07785 621319 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.
