Safeguarding is taken very seriously at St Mark's. All our volunteers have been safely recruited and the PCC has adopted the House of Bishops' document, "Promoting a Safer Church", as our Safeguarding Policy Document. A link for this is below.
If you have any Safeguarding concerns you can find details of how to report these in the document "Responding to a Safeguarding Concern or Allegation", which is also below.
