How we can help you to safegard children and young people.
Newcastle Diocese is committed to the safeguarding, care and nurture of the children within our church community.
It is our responsibility to offer children the best care and nurture we can provide, and also to offer our workers and volunteers the best structures within which to serve the church.
The Diocesan Advisor for Child Protection is Rev Jean Skinner
“Anyone who welcomes a little child on my behalf is welcoming me. But if anyone causes one of these little ones who trusts in me to lose faith, it would be better for that person to be thrown into the sea with a large millstone tied around his neck.” (Matthew Chapter 18 vv 5 and 6)
“The Child’s Welfare is paramount” (1989 Children Act)
