The Claydon Benefice

The Claydon Benefice became a legal entity in 2019 although the three parishes of Claydon & Barham, Henley and Great Blakenham had been co-operating together under a single Priest-in-Charge for many years, and the current Rector is Revd Tracey Caswell.

The Rectory for the Benefice is at 7 Back Lane Claydon.

Safeguarding

"Our Benefice 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’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 of our churches, or the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor [add their details here or use the button below to link to your own page that shows the info or the diocesan safeguarding page]. 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."
