Safeguarding at St Budock Church

Relationships are at the heart of all that the church is and does. Our church is a community in which people relate to each other and in which we recognise the worth and value of every single person.

It is, therefore, vitally important that we take great care of every person in the right way.

St Budock Church is committed to the safeguarding, care and nurture of everyone within our church community.

We will respond to every concern raised and we will co-operate fully with statutory agencies during any investigations they make into allegations.

Where possible and with Diocesan guidance, we seek to offer pastoral care to anyone who has been affected by abuse.

The Safeguarding Officer at St Budock Church is Heather Thomas, Tel: 01326 376339
