Here at St Oswald's Church, we take the safeguarding of children, young people and vulnerable adults very seriously. We carefully select and recruit the people who work at St Oswald's Church by using a Disclosure and Barring service (DBS) to ensure that they have the necessary clearance to work with children and vulnerable adults. We also ensure that all workers are given the necessary safeguarding training appropriate to the position which they hold within the church.

All of St Oswald's Church's safeguarding policies which have been approved by the Parochial Parish Council at St Oswald's, conform to the Coventry Diocese "Promoting a Safer Church" document, of which a copy is available by clicking on the link below.

Full copies of all safeguarding policies and proceedures are available at St Oswald's Church
