SAFEGUARDING
All Saints, in all aspects of its life, is committed to the protection of children, young people and vulnerable adults entrusted to its care. We fully accept and endorse the principle enshrined in the Children's Acts of 1989 and 2004 that the welfare of the child is paramount, and we encourage best practice within the church community by setting standards, following guidelines provided by the Diocese of Ely in their 'Safeguarding Procedures' and by supporting and working with parents.
We have appointed a Safeguarding co-ordinator to take responsibility for supervising our Safeguarding. This person, who will be trained in child protection procedures, is :
Polly Stanton (tel : 01223 722509,

Caroline Kingdon (tel : 01223 842048,
