St Michael's is a small and friendly church community which meets in the Worship Centre on the corner of Whalley New Road and Palm Street. We seek to keep the friendship of Jesus alive in our corner of Blackburn.
Our parish of Blackburn St Michael and All Angels with St John and Holy Trinity 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). The Diocese of Blackburn’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, Charlotte Ferguson (tel: 07840 479023), or the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor, Catherine Smith (tel: 07711 485710 or by email to [email protected] ).
More general safeguarding enquiries (non-confidential) can be addressed to [email protected] (tel: 01254 503088).
If you have immediate concerns about the safety of someone, please contact the police and the local authority’s children or adult social care services (tel: 01254 666400 or, out of office hours, 01253 587547).
