Our parish of St Columb Major is committed to safeguarding children, young people and adults from harm. We follow the House of Bishops guidance and policies and have our own Benefice Safeguarding Officer (BSO). Our Diocese of Truro’s safeguarding pages contain vital links and information including contacts for the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor who advises our BSO.

If you are concerned that a child or adult has been harmed or may be at risk of harm please contact the Benefice Safeguarding Officer, Jackie Oglethorpe - 01637-860733 , or the Head of Safeguarding, Diocesan Safeguarding Officer, Andy Earl - 01872 247212
