Safeguarding at Christ Church Parbold

At Christ Church Parbold, we are committed to creating a safe environment for young people and vulnerable adults. Our safeguarding approach is robust and thorough, ensuring the protection and well-being of all individuals in our community.

Our Commitment

As a parish, we have adopted the House of Bishops’ Promoting a Safer Church policy and the Parish Safeguarding Handbook, which incorporates the House of Bishops’ Safeguarding Policy and Practice Guidance. We expect all members of the church and visitors to adhere to the guidelines outlined in these documents.

Our PCC has formally adopted and signed the Safeguarding Policy Statement – Promoting a Safer Church. You can download a copy of this document here:
