Safeguarding

Our parish of Hunts Cross: St Hilda is committed to safeguarding children, young people and adults from harm. We follow the House of Bishops guidance and policies and have our own Parish Safeguarding Officer (PSO). Our Diocese of Liverpool’s safeguarding pages contain vital links and information including contacts for the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor who advises our PSO. If you are concerned that a child or adult has been harmed or may be at risk of harm please contact the PSO Valerie Carter valsmile@aol.com or the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor Andrew Holmes 07940 378 139 andy.holmes@liverpool.anglican.org If you have immediate concerns about the safety of someone, please contact the police and our local authority’s children (0151 233 3700) or adult (0151 709 6010) social care services.
