A Safe Church

St Augustine’s Parish Church is committed to:

  The care, nurture of, and respectful pastoral ministry with, all children, young people and all adults

 The safeguarding and protection of all children, young people and all adults

  The establishing of safe, caring communities which provide a loving environment where victims of abuse can report or disclose abuse and where they can find support and best practice that contributes to the prevention of abuse

The Church of England works in partnership with other Christian Churches and other agencies in delivering safeguarding. St Augustine’s will follow legislation, guidance and recognised good practice in all these principles.
