Safeguarding Audit
Dear Friends,
The Safeguarding audit of the Diocese by the INEQE Safeguarding Group is taking place and the survey phase has only one more week to run.
This is part of a national programme, commissioned by the Archbishop’s Council in response to the recommendations of the IICSA Enquiry, to conduct an independent and comprehensive audit of all Church of England dioceses and cathedrals. This programme will run for 5 years from 2023 to 2028 and its purpose is to make sure dioceses, cathedrals and palaces are doing all they can to create environments where everyone feels safe, valued and respected.
A key part of this audit is hearing the voices of all those who worship and work in the Diocese including employees, clergy, parishioners, worshippers, volunteers and supporters. INEQE really value your opinion and everyone is welcome to share their views and experiences through the survey.
This is an anonymous and confidential survey. Responses will be received directly by INEQE and not by the Diocese. What they are told will inform the Diocese-specific recommendations of the audit, all of which aim to improve and develop safeguarding practices across the Diocese.
If you haven’t already done so we ask that you consider completing the survey yourself before 30 April. More information is available on the website

Best wishes

Waendal Walk stall
On Saturday 10th May the Creations Craft group are going to have a stall at the Waendal Walk event. The stall will be in the grounds of the Castle Theatre. We will be raising money as our £100 for 100 contribution to the fund for the appointment of a Children’s and Youth Worker.
To this end, we would welcome any home made items (not food or drink) or any unwanted gifts to sell. We would also need a pasting table, or similar, and we will be using the gazebo.
Volunteers are needed from between12 noon to 6pm to man the stall, so any offers between these times would be welcome, so that we can have a rota of helpers. We will also need help to set up and pack away, which would include the church gazebo.
Please contact Sandi Rance if you are able to help
smartdriver@hotmail.co.uk
Your support and help will be appreciated.
Thank you

Giving:
Thank you to you all for your sacrificial giving. If you would like to give to the work and ministry of the church please collect a form from the table at church which will enable you to give via the recommended route of the Parish Giving Scheme (PGS).
