Safeguarding
The Methodist Church affirms that safeguarding is everyone's responsibility and is committed to safeguarding as an interregnal part of its life and ministry. This means we will:
- Promote the welfare of children, young people and adults
- Work to prevent abuse from occurring
- Seek to protect and respond well to those that have been abused
All of this is supported with consistent policies promoting good practice across the whole Church.
More information about Safeguarding, including support for survivors, policies & procedures, domestic abuse, training, safer recruitment and so much more can be found on the Methodist Church UK website here:
