Safeguarding Children and Vulnerable Adults

The Parish of Pinhoe with Poltimore is committed to safeguarding children, young people and adults from harm. We follow the House of Bishops guidance and policies and have our own Parish Safeguarding Officer (PSO).

The Exeter Diocese’s safeguarding pages contain vital links and information including contacts for the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor who advises our PSO: https://exeter.anglican.org/resources/safeguarding/safeguarding-team/ If you are concerned that a child or adult has been harmed or may be at risk of harm please contact our PSO, Jane Wright on 07891 973601 or the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor: Costa Nassaris: Tel: 01392 294969Mobile: 07809 339501 Email: [email protected].

If you have immediate concerns about the safety of someone, please contact the police and your local authority’s children or adult services. You can find the contact details for these on our website here: https://www.pinhope.co.uk/safeguarding
