Safeguarding is an essential issue at Collective Church. We want to ensure that everyone is safe and secure in every environment we create. We are committed to the following:
Promoting a safer environment and culture.
Safely recruiting and supporting all those with any responsibility related to children, young people and vulnerable adults within the church.
Responding promptly to every safeguarding concern or allegation.
Caring pastorally for victims/survivors of abuse and other affected persons.
Caring pastorally for those who are the subject of concerns or allegations of abuse and other affected persons.
Responding to those that may pose a present risk to others.
Collective Church engages the professional advice, training, and consultancy services of thirtyone:eight, an independent Christian charity that supports organisations in all areas of safeguarding children and adults at risk of harm.
