Safeguarding

Aycliffe Evangelical Church takes the safety and wellbeing of children and other vulnberable persons within its midst very seriously. We have produced a Safeguarding Policy based on the model policy of the Churches' Child Protection Advisory Service (CCPAS). Further details are available on request. e-mail enquiries.aec@gmail.com

At leadership level, one of our deacons, David Friery, acts as Safeguarding Officer. He is assisted by two deputies from the church membership, both of whom have professional experience in this field.

All our volunteers who work with children have received an enhanced CRB check, and such a check is a condition of being involved in such work.
