Our parish 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). The Diocese of York’s safeguarding pages (dioceseofyork.org.uk/safeguarding) 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 (Joyce Hogg, 07757 275524) or the Parish Office (01609 773338) or the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor (01904 699524, [email protected]). If you have immediate concerns about the safety of someone, please contact the police and/or North Yorkshire Council’s children or adult social care services (0300 131 2 131).
