Safeguarding

It is the responsibility of Cathedral staff, volunteers and members of the congregation to do everything in their power to prevent the physical, sexual, emotional, financial or spiritual abuse of children, young people and vulnerable adults and to report any abuse, alleged or suspected.

The Chapter of Norwich Cathedral is committed to supporting, resourcing and training all those who work with children, young people and vulnerable adults, because it recognises this as important in maintaining good practice and protection for those working with children, young people and vulnerable adults.

All staff and volunteers are safely recruited in accordance with our Disclosure and Barring Service Policy.

The Chapter of Norwich Cathedral adopts the House of Bishop’s Safeguarding Policies and Practice.
