Safeguarding
At C4 church, we take the safety of children, young people and vulnerable adults very seriously and we are committed to making our church a safe space.
The team below oversee safeguarding at C4. However, the care and protection of children, young people and vulnerable adults involved in the activities of C4 Church is the responsibility of the whole church. Everyone who participates in the life of the church has a role to play in promoting a safer church for all. Please contact the team about any safeguarding matter or concern, however small you might feel it is. Our volunteers are DBS Checked at Enhanced level for the applicable roles.
