The Parish operates in accordance with Statutory Safeguarding Guidance and the National and Archdioceses policies and procedures at all times.
Our Parish Safeguarding Representatives are:
- Carol Foster
- Maureen Treanor
Every parish has a responsibility to provide a safe environment which promotes and supports the wellbeing of everyone and protects them from harm. Olton Friary Parish has a team of two safeguarding representatives who are paricularly involved with the Disclosure and Barring system (DBS) and they defer to the Safeguarding Team at Cathedral House. The DBS ensures the safety for those carrying our Church ministries involving adults and children eg. Eucharistic Ministers, Catechists and Children's Liturgy. The Safeguarding representatives may be contacted for any concerns either through the Parish Office or by direct email
Alternatively, the Diocesan Safeguarding Team can be contacted on 0121 230 6240, or by email at safeguarding@rcaob.org.uk
