SAFEGUARDING
Our Responsibility...
At St Peter & St Paul's we agree that “Safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility” and we are committed to make our church safer for everyone – children and adults. We have pledged to follow the Church of England’s Safeguarding guidance "Promoting a Safer Church".
As Christians we are called to recognise and respect the individuality and dignity of all people. We have a special responsibility to safeguard both children and young people entrusted to our care, and all those adults in the who may be vulnerable.
