The Deaf Service follows full Diocesan policy in this area. In November 2004 a successful training day led by Peter Turner, Diocesan Child Protection Officer, was given to a large group of Deaf and hearing people who work within the Deaf community.
Police checks for all staff and volunteers have now been superseded by the more rigorous CRB (Criminal Records Bureau) enhanced check.
If you have any concerns regarding the pastoral care towards children or vulnerable people given by Deaf Service staff or volunteers, please bring it to the attention of
