If you are concerned that a child or adult has been harmed or may be at risk of harm please contact the BSO, Jeremy Hawksley - [email protected]; our Deputy Safeguarding Officer, Barbara Stear - [email protected]; or the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor, Karen Galloway - [email protected].

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.
