Introduction
Children and Young People are an important part of our church today. We have a range of groups for children and young people of all ages, from birth to 4 years old, ages 5 to 11 and young people's groups for ages 11 to 18.
We take the safety of all children very seriously and we have a Parish Safeguarding Policy which can be found below.
Safeguarding & Child Protection
There is a fantastic group of volunteers from St John's who give up an enormous amount of their time to work with children, teenagers and adults. All staff and volunteers are DBS checked and Safeguarding procedures are in line with Chester Diocesan guidelines.
Our Safeguarding Policy is reviewed by the PCC once a year.
We have appointed a Parish Safeguarding Officer. If you have any safeguarding questions or issues, please email our Safeguarding Officer using This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..
