The parish of Holy Innocents takes Child Protection very seriously. Listed on the navigation menu on the left of this page are the three documents which describe parish policy in this area. All are PDF documents - you will need a (free) copy of Adobe Reader to read them.

Please read the 'concerns' document of the navigation menu left if:

• you have concerns about the way a child is being treated, or
• you are a child who needs someone to talk to, or
• you need advice on child safety issues.

We also have guidelines on working with children and young people within the parish which we would like those who work in this area to adhere to.

If groups or individuals wish to take children or young people from the parish on an outing, they should first inform Fr Victor. He can be contacted via the parish office (01689) 817 537; or email Holy Innocents office).

Finally, we have a Model Consent Form, aimed at parents and guardians. Individual groups may wish to adapt this to suit particular needs.
