At Hope Baptist Church, we take the safety and wellbeing of everyone in our church community seriously. We are committed to creating a safe, welcoming and respectful environment where children, young people and adults can flourish. We have safeguarding policies and procedures in place, our staff and volunteers are appropriately recruited and trained, and we take concerns about abuse or neglect seriously and respond to them appropriately. Safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility, and we are committed to continually reviewing and strengthening our practice so that Hope can be a safe place for everyone.
