Our parish of East Chinnock 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 Bath & Wells’s safeguarding pages contains 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 {Mick Collins Tel: 01935 863129} or the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor {Ben Goodhind Tel: 01749 588917}.

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.
