If you are concerned that a child or adult has been harmed or may be at risk of harm please contact the PSO https://whitewaterchurches.co.uk/about-us/safeguarding/ or the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor. 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."
