Our vision is to see Grimsby reached with the love of God … a GREATER LOVE.
To see the Church released to live for Jesus … a GREATER LIFE.
As we go to see lives and communities transformed … a GREATER GRIMSBY.
A note on Safeguarding: For information on safeguarding and how to report concerns, please visit our website.
Most of the time at church we are like a big and happy family. However there are times even in happy families where people can have a bad day and even people we know and trust can upset us. We want to help everyone have a good day all of the time.
If you have a serious concern about a child or adult at risk you should contact the Police or the local authority safeguarding team in your area. Please note: you do not need to speak to the either the local Safeguarding Officer or the Diocesan Safeguarding Team first if the matter is urgent.
It's important that you tell us if something is upsetting you or if you are feeling worried about something that’s happening or something somebody is doing. We have specially trained people who you can talk to and who you can ask for help. These people are good at safeguarding. This means they look after everyones safety.
