Safeguarding policy

A safeguarding policy is essential for every church, even if we don't work with children or adults at risk of abuse. A safeguarding policy sets out an organisation's commitment to protect everyone they work with from harm and outlines how they will do that.

Privacy policy

Caring for one another's information, and particularly their personal data, is an important way that we can be good neighbours and build a healthy community of trust. A privacy policy sets out what and how we hold information within the parish, as an organisation, so that everyone who comes to us for help and fellowship can be confident in us.

Our PCC

The PCC is the governing body of the church and as such is called, alongside the minister, to lead in carrying out its mission. It is also the means by which information and resolutions are passed from the Diocesan and Deanery Synods to the congregation and, just as importantly, from the congregation to these wider groups.

Our PCC is currently the process of extending its range with a number of working groups. If you are interested in joining any of these groups do contact us us and someone will be in touch to discuss with you where your talents might best lie.
