Out of hours contact
'The Diocese of Bath & Wells partners with thirtyone:eight in relation to accessing the safeguarding Helpline during out of hours (which operates 5pm - midnight & 7am - 09am on Mon-Fri; 07am - midnight on Sat and Sun), on bank holidays and other absences.
During the above-mentioned instances, you are advised to contact thirtyone:eight's Safeguarding Helpline on 0303 003 1111 for emergency safeguarding queries. An Information Sharing Agreement between the two organisations will allow for the DSA to receive a copy of the advice thirtyone:eight may offer the parish church/caller, so that appropriate follow up and support can be offered to the caller/situation, on the DSA's return to the office.”
