Handley Church is located in Sixpenny Handley, one of the largest villages in Dorset, comprising more than 500 households. A service is held in the church every Sunday, to which everyone is welcome. The church has a refreshments area and toilet.
Our parish of Sixpenny Handley with Gussage St Andrew 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). Our Diocese of Salisbury’s safeguarding pages contain vital links and information including contacts for the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor who advises our PSO. If you are concerned that a child or adult has been harmed or may be at risk of harm please contact the PSO, Mrs Maureen Lockyer on 01725 552492 or the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor https://www.salisbury.anglican.org/safeguarding86696/
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.
