Safeguarding Statement

At Holy Trinity we are committed to the care and protection of children, young people and adults involved in Church activities. We recognise this is the responsibility of everyone who participates in the life of the Church.

The Holy Trinity PCC sign an annual Safeguarding Policy Statement , agreeing to adopt and implement the House of Bishops Safeguarding Policy for children, young people and adults.

The latest policy, ‘Promoting a Safer Church (2018)’ can be viewed on the CofE website by clicking here.
