Safeguarding

St Patrick’s Missionary Society is committed to the mission of safeguarding and creating safe environments for children and adults at risk, and those working with them. We assume a responsibility for all, to ensure their safety and protection from any intentional or unintentional maltreatment or abuse. 

 

The Society's policy extends to all within the Society’s care and concern in any type of ministry and within the situations in which we minister – short term or long term. It sets out a commitment to keep all within our communities and ministries safe from any form of abuse.
