The following statement, taken from the Methodist Church Safeguarding Policy Statement, emphasises the obligation we all have to ensure our churches remain safe places for everyone:

'The Methodist Church affirms that safeguarding is a shared responsibility. Everyone associated with the Church who comes into contact with children, young people and adults has a role to play. This is supported with consistent policies promoting good practice across the whole Church'

All users groups are required to agree to, and abide by, the church’s safeguarding policy or provide their own to our letting officer..

A signed copy of our the church’s safeguarding policy is on the interior notice board at the main entry to the building.
