Safeguarding in our Parish

The Church of England is committed to the safeguarding and protection of all children, young people and adults, and the care and nurture of them in our church communities.

We will carefully select, train and support all those with any responsibility within the church in line with the safer recruitment principles. (Safer Recruitment Practice Guidance 2016)
