Our parish of Grendon Underwood 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). Our Diocese of Oxford’s safeguarding pages contain vital links and information including contacts for the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor 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 (Jane Speak) or the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor (Outside office hours please call their partners Thirtyone:eight on 0303 003 1111 for confidential advice, guidance and support. During office hours Call 01865 208 295 or email [email protected]
for urgent safeguarding concerns Monday to Thursday 9am – 5pm and Friday 9am – 4.30pm.)

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.
