The Blessed Sacrament and St. Brides parishes are committed to the Safeguarding policies of the Catholic Church here in England and Wales; to protect children and vulnerable adults from neglect, physical, emotional and sexual abuse and to promote a safe environment for them.
This commitment stems from our conviction, that every person has innate dignity and worth.
The policy of our parish and archdiocese is that everyone who works with children and vulnerable adults are officially checked and cleared through the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS).
The Catholic Safeguarding Advisory Service (CSAS) emphasises that Safeguarding goes to the very heart of the ministry and mission of our Catholic Church. Safeguarding is about nurturing wellbeing, helping individuals realise their potential and of course it is about ensuring everyone is safe and protected from harm and abuse.
The Catholic Church through the NCSC conducts an annual National survey centred around the subject of best practice with regards to Safeguarding. The 2018 report findings provide a transparent insight into Safeguarding matters and how they are measured and remedied . The report can be seen by following the link below .
The Blessed Sacrament and St. Brides Parish have access to the Catholic EduCare programme. This brings to our Community and the wider church an e-learning package which raises awareness throughout the Catholic Community in England and Wales. The e-learning package is part of the Church’s commitment to safeguarding, and is available to all members of the Catholic community.
