Our commitments

  • We will treat all who engage with the church through its ministries with courtesy and respect and will seek to uphold their inherent dignity and worth.
  • We will seek to support and care well for anyone who discloses to us that they have been a victim
    of abuse or neglect and report this to statutory services in line with local procedures where
    required.
  • We will seek to listen well to any concerns, complaints, or other expressions of dissatisfaction and
    to respond in a proportionate, impartial, transparent, and accountable manner.
  • We will carefully examine any allegations made or concerns raised about any member or leader
    and respond appropriately.
  • We will ensure that our staff and volunteers are competent to fulfil their roles, and the legal duties
    associated with safeguarding.
