Safeguarding

St James Church Bramley takes the safeguarding and care of children and vulnerable adults very seriously. Everyone should feel safe at St James. We have a safeguarding officer to advise and monitor our policy and processes. Our safeguarding policy is available below.

We have an approved method of safely recruiting and training all church roles (paid and voluntary) which involve working with or overseeing children or vulnerable adults. Our safer recruitment procedure includes obtaining Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) certificates and training, which are renewed every 3 years.

We follow the current Diocesan Policies and Procedures on safeguarding.

If you have any safeguarding concerns at all please contact our Parish Safeguarding Officer:
