SAFEGUARDING

OUR SAFEGUARDING POLICY

As part of the Diocese of St Albans in the Church of England, we are committed to safeguarding as an integral part of the life and ministry of the Church. This means taking action as a church to promote a safer culture where the welfare of children, young people and adults is paramount, to prevent abuse occurring, to protect those at risk and to respond well to those that have been abused. We will always take care to identify where a person may present a risk to others, and act accordingly.

Our Parish Safeguarding Officer is - Ms Rosie Akeroyd who can be contacted about any safeguarding matter via the Parish Office on 01442 260299
