The care and protection of children, young people and vulnerable adults involved in church activities is the responsibility of the whole church. Everyone who participates in the life of the church has a role to play in promoting a Safer Church for all.

​

Safeguarding is an integral part of the mission and ministry of the church in this diocese and is in line with our Growing in God strategy. Safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility.

​

Lightwave has a comprehensive Safeguarding Policy and our volunteers who work with young people or vulnerable adults are DBS checked and receive Safeguarding training. We review the Safeguarding Policy and our safeguarding practice each year. 
 

If you have any concerns at any time about safeguarding in our groups or Hubs please contact the Archdeacon for Rural Mission, Sally Gaze - archdeacon.sally@cofesuffolk.org or use the link below to report your concern directly.
