Protection of our children and young people is of paramount importance to us.  We have adopted the Child Protection Policy that has been developed by the Diocese of Guildford.

For more information about our policy and the guidelines and training we give our volunteers and worker please contact us.

If you have any concerns at all about the safety of children in our care, please contact Stefan Nahajski or our child protection officer (see the contacts page)
