What is Safeguarding?

We are fully committed to the wellbeing of all members of our parish communities and wish all members, including the vulnerable and young, to be able to participate fully and with confidence.  We have adopted the Diocese of Shrewsbury’s guidance on safeguarding and with the help of volunteers in the parish, we put these measures in to practice.  Further information on the Diocesan approach to safeguarding in our parish communities is given on the diocesan website and the link below:

Details of our safeguarding representative are given on the notice in the front porch of St Peter’s Church.  If you would like to find out more about Parish Safeguarding, in the first instance, please contact our safeguarding representative.
