Our Safeguarding responsibilities

The church recognises its responsibilities in safeguarding all children, young people and adults at risk, regardless of gender, ethnicity or ability.

As members of this church we commit ourselves to the nurturing, protection and safekeeping of all associated with the church and will pray for them regularly. In pursuit of this, we commit ourselves to this policy and to the development of sound procedures to ensure we implement our policy well.

Raise a safeguarding concern

Any concern you raise is sent directly to NPBC’s Designated Person for Safeguarding. It will always be treated seriously and confidentially.
