Safeguarding at St Paul's Church
The welfare of children, young people and adults is our top priority at St Paul's and we work to a thorough Safeguarding Policy, in line with the Diocese of Guildford and the Church of England.
We have an experienced team dedicated to the role of maintaining best practice in all areas of safeguarding; which includes safe recruitment of volunteer leaders, regular training and regular reviews of our policies and procedures. All those at St Paul's who serve in leading our many youth and children's groups are subject to enhanced DBS checks.
