Promoting a Safer College
If there is immediate risk or danger, please contact the police on 999.
The care and protection of children, young people and adults involved in Church activities is the responsibility of everyone. IF YOU ARE CONCERNED that someone you know is at risk, or is being abused, or presents a risk to others, please seek advice from a Safeguarding Adviser, or if necessary report the matter to the Local Authority Social Care Services or the Police without delay.
