Safeguarding
We take the safety of our U18s and vulnerable adults very seriously. We want to do the best we can to make sure that everyone who takes part in any of our groups or activities is as safe as they can be. We believe that safeguarding is everybody's responsibility.
If you are U18 or a vulnerable adult and are worried about anything, you can talk to:
If you think that a U18 or vulnerable adult may be in immediate risk of harm, you should contact the police on 999 (emergency) or 101 (less urgent). Otherwise, please speak to one of the people under Contacts at the bottom of this page. Our policyWe follow the Church of England's Safeguarding policy and practice guidance in promoting a safer church.
Here is our Parish Safeguarding Handbook Child Protection policy update 1 - Internet and media All our volunteers must complete a self-declaration form and anyone in any position of regular or regulated activity must complete a DBS check every three years. If you volunteer to work with U18s or vulnerable adults, we may therefore ask you to undertake an online DBS check. This is free of charge and likely to take under 30 minutes. We'll also need to see three forms of personal ID. The process normally takes a week. We aim to offer training to all our volunteers regularly. |
