Safeguarding in the
Clarendon Churches
The Churches that comprise the Clarendon Team take their responsibilities surrounding the safeguarding of children, young people, and adults who may be at risk very seriously, and work in partnership with the Diocese of Salisbury to ensure that they work in accordance with best practice at all times.
If you have any Safeguarding questions or concerns, or if you suspect abuse or are a victim of abuse, you can contact your Parish Safeguarding Officer, a member of clergy or the Diocesan Safeguarding Adviser.
