Safeguarding
Caldicot Methodist Church is committed to these safeguarding principles:
The care, nurture and respectful pastoral ministry for all-children, young people and adults.
The safeguarding and protection of children, young people and adults.
The establishing of safe, caring communities which provide a loving environment where victims of abuse can report or disclose abuse, and where they can find support and best practice that contributes to the prevention of abuse.
