This booklet has been written for those who are considering taking up, or have recently taken up, the role of safeguarding coordinator, or deputy, in their local United Reformed Church (URC). It seeks to define safeguarding in the context of church, as well as setting out the core responsibilities and necessary skills and abilities of safeguarding coordinators.
Disclaimer: Please note that the information also applies to churches of the URC that are part of Local Ecumenical Partnerships (LEPs) that use the URC Safeguarding Policy rather than that of another denomination in the LEP
