Our parish of Presteigne w Discoed 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), Lizzie Smallpage. Our Diocese of Hereford’s safeguarding pages contain vital links and information including contacts for the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor, Carl Steventon, 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 Lizzie, 01544 267 663 or Carl, 07593 817717. 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.
