Safeguarding
We take the safeguarding and care of children and vulnerable adults very seriously at Christ Church.
We are committed to:
-
the care and nurture of, and respectful pastoral ministry with, all children, young people and adults
-
the safeguarding and protection of all children, young people and adults when they are vulnerable
-
the establishing of safe, caring communities which provide a loving environment where there is informed vigilance as to the dangers of abuse.
