Safeguarding/Child Protection Statement


The parish operates in accordance with the safeguarding policies and procedures of the Diocese of Westminster, to ensure the safety and protection of all children and adults at risk in a church environment.  All those having personal contact with children (and adults at risk) in this parish, including the parish clergy, have received a clear Enhanced Certificate from the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS).

The parish is fully committed to the safeguarding of children and adults at risk within its community. It follows the guidance of the Catholic Safeguarding Standards Agency (CSSA) to promote the safety and protection of all children and vulnerable adults taking part in parish activities. All parish volunteers working with vulnerable groups are required to undergo a Safer Recruitment Process and DBS checks in accordance with Diocesan guidelines.
