Safeguarding

As members of this Parish we commit ourselves to care for one another safely. Safeguarding is at the heart of everything that we do. We recognise that everyone has different levels of vulnerability, both seen and unseen, and that each of us may be regarded as at risk at some time in our lives.

We commit ourselves to:

the safeguarding of people who may be at risk, ensuring their wellbeing in the life of this church promoting safe practice by those in positions of trust. Promoting the inclusion and empowerment of people who may be at risk. Recruiting safely, following the recognised procedures. Supporting, resourcing, training and regularly reviewing those who undertake work with children/young people and adults who might be at risk.
