The Parish provides a range of activities. These include spiritual, catechetical and pastoral activities such as the Parish First Holy Communion Program, Children's Liturgy, Altar Serving, SVP Society etc. We are committed to the protection and safeguarding of all young people and vulnerable adults in accordance with the guidelines from the Archdiocese of Birmingham.
Parish Safeguarding Representative Each Parish in the Archdiocese has to nominate a person who is responsible to the Safeguarding Agency for the clearance of everyone who, in the course of their work for the Parish, has contact with children or vulnerable adults. This involves the completion of a Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) Form and the Parish Safeguarding Representative examining certain documents to validate a person's identity. The DBS Form is then sent to the Criminal Records Bureau for checking. Contacting the Parish Safeguarding Representative The Parish Safeguarding Representative is also the point of contact for anyone who has any concerns over the safety of children or vulnerable adults within the Parish. |
