Safeguarding

The Savernake Team takes its responsibilities surrounding the safeguarding of children, young people, and adults who may be at risk, very seriously. We work in partnership with the Diocese of Salisbury to ensure that we are operating in accordance with best practice at all times and Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) checks are mandatory.

The Savernake Team Policy Statement can be downloaded here. This is in line with the Church of England’s Safeguarding Policy Statement which can be accessed here.

The Safeguarding Policy which is displayed in each church can be found here.
