Safeguarding

Each of the churches within The Sampford Peverell Team Mission Community fully recognises and accepts the House of Bishops’ Safeguarding Policy Statement “Promoting a Safer Church 2017” and commits to complying with the current Church of England and Diocesan safeguarding policies and practice guidance. In so doing we will comply with the secular multi-agency safeguarding procedures relating to children and young people and adults experiencing or at risk of harm, abuse or neglect.

The rest of our Safeguarding Policy statement can be found on our Statements pages.
