Safeguarding

We want to make sure that everyone who joins us at Spicer Street is safe - so safeguarding is a priority here. 

Every person, paid or volunteer, who works with children, young people or adults at risk has a criminal records check via the Disclosure and Barring Service.  And everyone who works with those groups is trained in safeguarding.  That training includes how to:

  • work safely
  • respond to and record concerns and incidents
  • report concerns appropriately

Our safeguarding policy sets out in detail what we do to protect vulnerable people. It has been produced using guidance from the safeguarding service thirtyone:eight.  For further information about the policy, use the contact form below.

To discuss a safeguarding issue relating to a Spicer Street ministry please use the form below to contact Chris Upton (safeguarding co-ordinator) or Amanda Jefferies or Jenny Kwok (deputy safeguarding co-ordinators).
