The Diocese of Newcastle is committed to keeping children, young people, and adults safe. We want everyone, especially those who are vulnerable, to have a safe and supportive place to grow in faith and worship.
We follow the national legal and procedural framework for safeguarding children and adults, and Church of England policy and practice which can be found here.
