The Diocesan Safeguarding Team is committed to embedding a culture of safety, care and integrity across all our parishes. We proactively protect children, young people and adults at risk by providing expert guidance, robust training and compassionate, professional support for survivors, families and those responding to concerns. We respond to all disclosures and allegations with compassion, transparency and rigour, working closely with survivors, statutory agencies and local communities to ensure our churches are safe places where the dignity of every person is recognised, respected and upheld.
