Safeguarding
At All Saints’ we take the safeguarding of children and vulnerable adults very seriously and our policies, approved by the Church of England and the Diocese of Leeds, are designed to underpin this.
View The Parish Safeguarding Handbook >>
We believe that the care and protection of children, young people and adults involved in
Church activities is the responsibility of everyone who participates in the life of the
Church. We are committed to:
• Promoting a safer environment and culture
• Safely recruiting and supporting all those with any responsibility related to children,
young people and vulnerable adults
• Responding promptly to every safeguarding concern or allegation
• Caring pastorally for victims/survivors of abuse or other affected persons
• Caring pastorally for those who are the subject of concerns/allegations of abuse and
other affected persons
• Responding to those that may pose a present risk.
If you are concerned that someone you know is at risk of abuse, or is being abused, or presents
a risk to others, please seek advice from a safeguarding adviser or if necessary report the
matter to the Local Authority social care services or the police without delay. If there is
immediate risk or danger please contact the police on 101.
