Christian communities should be places where all people feel welcomed, respected and safe from abuse. The Church is particularly called by God to support those less powerful and those without a voice in our society and so St Stephen's takes the safeguarding of all ages and people seriously. Should you have a Safeguarding concern please contact our Safeguarding Officer Claire Vanni. Alternatively please contact the Diocese of Bath and Wells Safeguarding team: safe.guarding@bathwells.anglican.org Out of hours safeguarding support is provided to the diocese by the charity thirtyone:eight. More details are available via the Diocesan website: Reporting concerns or abuse - Bath and Wells Diocese
