Safeguarding

Seaford Baptist Church recognises its responsibilities in safeguarding all children, young people and adults at risk, regardless of gender, ethnicity or ability. All those working with or caring for those at risk are DBS checked and we undertake regular training.

​

We review our policies on an annual basis, and we commit ourselves to the nurturing, protection and safeguarding of all associated with the church and will pray for them regularly. In pursuit of this we commit ourselves to the policy. Our manual of policies and procedures for Safeguarding is available from the church office.
