Safeguarding

All Saints we take Safeguarding very seriously.

At All Saints Church Wingerworth, safeguarding is an important part of the life and mission of the church. We want to see everyone flourish and experience fullness of life, and ensuring that people are cared for appropriately is a key part of that.

As Bishop Alastair, the former Bishop of Derby, writes:
"Robust safeguarding arrangements are important at all levels of the Diocese because children, young people and vulnerable adults are an important part of the church’s family. The way we treat them is vital to our ability to keep them safe and is central to our Mission in the communities in which we serve. We need to value the part each of us plays, in all aspects of church life and we respect the differing needs each of us might have."
