The Diocese of Blackburn has produced a Policy for Safeguarding Children and Young People.

It has also produced a Parish Policy Statement on Safeguarding Adults in the Church.

Both of these policies were adopted by the PCC at their meeting on Monday, 3rd February 2020.

Contact details for our Parish Safeguarding Officer will be published on this page & the home page, when they become available.
