Safeguarding

---

All adults (aged over 18) who work with children and vulnerable adults needs to have a DBS check carried out on them.  This check is completed through the Diocese for anyone working as a paid employee or as a volunteer for the Diocese, so all Altar Servers, Eucharistic Minister, Children's Liturgy team members must have a check completed on them every three years.  

If you think you may need to have a DBS check carried out for the work you do for the parish then please speak to our Parish Secretary, Fiona, who can help you.

Please note that the Diocesan check does not cover volunteers working with the Legion of Mary or the Society of St Vincent de Paul, or volunteers who visit any hospital on behalf of the Diocese.  These volunteers will need to have a separate check carried out on them by the relevant organisation.
