Safeguarding

Encourage a safe environment for children and adults.

HeartEdge as part of St Martin-in-the-Fields  works to encourage a safe environment for children and for adults facing additional safeguarding risks who visit, worship or are employed at St Martin-in-the-Fields. Details of how to respond to a possible safeguarding risk can be found here.

The Parochial Church Council has adopted the London Diocese PCC Safeguarding Statement and all those who hire or use our premises are expected to abide by this safeguarding policy or agree a comparable policy with our safeguarding leads.

Our Safeguarding Contacts are:

  • Revd Andrew Woodward – Safeguarding Lead 
  • Kristine Wellington – Parish Safeguarding Officer
  • Ruly Tsang – Safeguarding Assistant for the Chinese Congregation

They can be contacted by emailing safeguarding@smitf.org.

A Guide to Support can be found here: Support leaflet

Safe Spaces is a free and independent support service, providing a confidential, personal and safe space for anyone who has been abused by someone in the Church or as a result of their relationship with the Church of England, the Catholic Church in England and Wales or the Church in Wales.
