Safeguarding
Our parish of All Saints, Little Casterton is committed to safeguarding
children, young people and adults from harm.
We aim to promote a safe environment and culture by safely recruiting and
supporting all those with any responsibility related to children and vulnerable
adults and promptly responding to every safeguarding concern or allegation.
We aim to care pastorally for victims/survivors of abuse or other affected
persons and also those who are the subject of concerns/allegations of
abuse.
We aim to appropriately respond to those that may pose a present risk.
We follow the House of Bishops guidance and policies and have our own
Parish Safeguarding Officer (PSO). Our Diocese of Peterborough’s
safeguarding pages contain vital links and information including contacts for
the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor who advises our PSO https://
