The Beacon Church regards the protection and safeguarding of children, young people, and vulnerable adults, along with good working practice as a priority. In the interests of the safety and wellbeing of all, it has developed and operates a formal safeguarding policy, and the church is registered with an independent Christian charity, Christian Safeguarding Services
The Beacon Church is committed to ensuring that everyone working with children, young people, and vulnerable adults:
• has been safely recruited
• is adequately trained and supervised
• understands and follows the Beacon Church Safeguarding Policy
As part of the Beacon Church’s commitment to children, young people, and adults with care and support needs, it has appointed Julian Pollard and Emma Billington as Safeguarding Coordinators, and James Lycett as Deputy Safeguarding Coordinator. Glyn Tither is Safeguarding Trustee. All the children, young people, and adults with care and support needs involved in activities within the church know who they are and how they can be contacted. If someone has a Safeguarding concern about any child, young person, or adult with care and support needs connected with Beacon Church, they should complete this form and inform the church by emailing [email protected] or [email protected].
Should the Beacon Church have any safeguarding concerns, it will seek the advice of Christian Safeguarding Services and, if appropriate, contact the statutory authorities.
