Safeguarding

“Our Commitment to Safety and Protection”

Our Commitment

Our parish of Ayot St Lawrence is committed to safeguarding children, young people and adults from harm. We follow the House of Bishops guidance and policies and share the Parish Safeguarding Officer (PSO) with Kimpton Parish Church.

Our Diocese of St. Albans’ safeguarding pages contain vital links and information including contacts for the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor who advises our PSO.
