Safeguarding
We attach the highest priority to keeping children and vulnerable adults safe within our church community.
We follow the safeguarding policies and procedures set out by the Methodist Church. They are also available in the church. Please ask a member of the safeguarding team if you would like a copy.
If you are concerned that a child or adult has been harmed or may be at risk of harm, please speak to a member of the church safeguarding team or a church steward. Please call 07976 613 279 or email aj60@dial.pipex.com for more information.
