Local contacts available to speak to if you have any concerns:Marion Layberry (Benefice Safeguarding Lead) Rev'd Tim Edwards (Rector) Janice Keen (Diocesan Safeguarding Adviser) Local Authority Social Services (Kent) If there is an immediate risk or danger, please contact the police on 999.Click here to download the safeguarding policy we follow. The first two levels of Safeguarding training (C0 - Basic Awareness, and C1 - Foundation) are available free of charge online here. We also run C0 and C1 courses at the Rectory from time to time, if you find computer-based training inconvenient. (Updated: November 2019) |
