In the Benefice of Whorlton we are committed to safeguarding children, young people and adults from harm. We follow the House of Bishops guidance and policies and have our own Parishes Safeguarding Officer (PSO).
The Diocese of York’s safeguarding pages contain vital links and information, including contacts for the Diocesan Safeguarding Adviser, 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 [Andrea Wheatley - [email protected] 07958667842] or the Diocesan Safeguarding Adviser. If you have immediate concerns about the safety of someone, please contact the police and North Yorkshire Council's children's or adult social care services.
