Abuse is the violation of an individual’s human and civil
rights by any other person or persons.
Abuse is always harmful.
Not everyone can protect themselves from harm.
Safeguarding is the term we use to describe the action
taken to promote the welfare of individuals who are
vulnerable and the action we take to protect them from
harm and abuse of all kinds. Safeguarding is a term that is
applied in relation to both children and adults. It requires a
proactive approach and places equal importance on the
promotion of welfare and protection from abuse. It is
essentially an approach that states we all have the right to
feel safe all of the time and that an individual’s safety should
be guarded well. Further it implies that we have a
responsibility to each other in promoting safety and in
challenging and preventing abuse.
Please remember that if you have a serious concern about a
child or adult at risk, you should contact the Police or the
local authority safeguarding team in your area without delay!
You do not need to speak to the diocesan safeguarding team
first if the matter is urgent!
Most of the time at church we are like a big happy
family! However even in very happy families people can
have a bad day and even people we know and trust can
upset us. We want to help everyone have good days all of
the time. We try to make sure that people who have jobs in
the church always behave well and in a way that is helpful to
you. We never want anyone or anything in church to frighten
you, confuse you or worry you. It is important that you tell
us if something is upsetting you or if you are feeling worried
about something that’s happening or something somebody
is doing. We have specially trained people who you can talk
to and who you can ask for help. These people are good at
safeguarding. This means they look after everyone’s safety.
Caring for people is a very important part of our Christian
life.
The people who can help you are the parish priest or the
parish safeguarding officer.

Keeping Safe
Are you are having thoughts
about suicide? Talk to someone
you trust about it. Until
retirement, John Marshall was
previously an accredited Safetalk
Trainer and is a community
Suicide Alert First Aider and
may be able to help you.
If you are concerned that someone you know or meet, may be having
thoughts of suicide. Don’t ignore it and get some help if needed.
You may have noticed that someone has become withdrawn,
careless, moody, or is behaving differently. Tell them what you have
noticed and directly ask: “Are you thinking about suicide?”
Listen to the response and if he or she is thinking about suicide, offer
to talk through the situation with them. It is serious.
They may have other issues but you are concerned about their risk
of suicide. Stay calm and tell them that you wish to help them keep
safe. Offer to connect them with a friend, family member, G.P. church
minister, or someone else they trust who can give further support.
You may find the Livingworks website useful.
Safetalk is a course to enable you to learn more and gain in
confidence when dealing with situations.
ASIST is a more in depth 2 day suicide First Aider course.
