Safeguarding

Introduction:

The Benefice of Yardley Hastings takes the safeguarding of all of our people very seriously.

We are committed to following the government and Church of England guidelines on safeguarding children and vulnerable adults and good working practice, including recruitment of volunteers and paid workers.
