Safeguarding
The Archdiocese of Birmingham has a zero-tolerance approach to all abuse. All Church activity should provide a safe environment which promotes and supports the wellbeing of everyone and protects them from harm. The Catholic Church in England and Wales has a single approach to Safeguarding. The Archdiocese of Birmingham follows the National Safeguarding policy provided by the Catholic Safeguarding Standards Agency; safeguarding in the Archdiocese is overseen by the Safeguarding Trustee Sub-committee. You can contact the safeguarding team on 0121 230 6240 / safeguarding@rcaob.org.uk If a Child (anyone under the age of 18) or Adult at Risk is in immediate danger you must contact the Police on 999.
