The Baptist Union of Great Britain : Model Safeguarding Policy and Procedures

Model Safeguarding Policy and Procedures

This guide to safeguarding policy, procedures and best practice has been put together by the Baptist Union of Great Britain to offer a template and a set of helpful guidance notes for churches as they develop or review the safeguarding framework for their church. It is divided into four sections:

1) Safeguarding Policy Statement – this is a template policy that you can use as a starting point for your own church’s policy

2) Safeguarding Procedures – these sections provide a clear outline of the reporting procedures needed in every local Baptist church

3) Best Practice Guidelines – these guidelines provide detailed information on key areas of safeguarding in the life of a Baptist church

4) Useful Contacts
