Document summary

Guidance for paid and voluntary workers and visitors.

It is difficult to acknowledge sometimes that abuse can happen within a place of worship but any group or organisation working with children is vulnerable. It is the responsibility of us all, irrespective of our particular faith or cultural background, to put the welfare of children and young people first and to recognize behaviors that can put children at risk.
