Safeguarding at St Lawrence Church

We aim to develop healthy cultures which prevent harm from taking place and ensure disclosures can be made safely when harm does occur.

If you are concerned that a child or adult has been harmed or may be at risk of harm please contact:

If immediate help is required please contact the Police or Social Services.

All those working on behalf of St. Lawrence will :

Treat individuals with respect and dignity.
Ensure individuals know who they can talk to about a personal concern.
Record and report any safeguarding concern to the activity leader or to the PSO.
Obtain written consent for any photographs or videos taken or shared.

Safeguarding training and DBS checks are undertaken by people working with children, young people and adults in accordance with Promoting a Safer Church.
