Safeguarding

Our parish of Scarborough: St Mary 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). Our Diocese of York’s safeguarding pages 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 Mrs Angela Witty (07793 151497, [email protected]) or the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor Rob Marshall (01904 699524, [email protected]). If you have immediate concerns about the safety of someone, please contact the police and your local authority’s children or adult social care services. There is more information on our policies and approach to safeguarding found at https://www.stmaryswithholyapostles.com/safeguarding.
