Many members of our congregation will need to complete this safeguarding awareness course, which can be completed online and takes about an hour. Anyone on the PCC and anyone in a position of responsibility that potentially involves contact with children and / or vulnerable adults must complete this training, but it is highly recommended that every member of the church should consider doing so for all round awareness.You will need to register for an account on the portal at:https://safeguardingtraining.cofeportal.orgOnce this is complete, you will be able to access the courses and should look for the one labelled Basic Awareness.If you have any questions, please contact the Parish Safeguarding Officer, whose details can be found on the Safeguarding page of this site.
