We follow best practice in the way we work with young people and vulnerable adults.
Everyone who works with children or vulnerable adults in the Parish has a clear job description, provides two referees and requires a DBS (formally CRB) Disclosure. Amanda Lewis, our Parish Safeguarding Representative, is responsible for the administration and checking of new volunteers and is a contact point for advice and concern about matters concerning safeguarding.
