SAFEGUARDING
CHILDREN AND YOUNG PEOPLE
.
Park
Avenue Methodist Church takes seriously the 1989 Children's Act
produced
by the Home Office. It is the responsibility of each one of us to
prevent
the physical, sexual and emotional abuse of children and young
people
to prevent abuse and to report any abuse discovered or suspected.
Any
person using Park Avenue premises must adopt either the Methodist
Safeguarding
policy and sign the appropriate form to declare they have not
been
convicted or received a formal caution concerning offences against
children
or young people; or prove that they have already signed such
agreement.
Failure to comply will mean that the premises cannot be
used
by the person(s) concerned.
