Safeguarding
At St Edward the Confessor we take safeguarding very seriously so that everyone can feel safe and secure, practicing their faith, participating fully in the life of the parish, and being part of a caring Catholic community which looks out for one another.
We remain vigilant, so that those who have failed to honour the commandment given to us by Jesus to love one another and who harbour nefarious intentions, have no place to hide within our parish and the wider Catholic Church. To underpin our commitment to protecting those who may be at risk, we have a Safeguarding Policy which details our responsibilities and the practices within which we operate.
At all times we will listen and act with kindness and compassion towards survivors and victims of any kind of abuse or persecution.
