MATER CHRISTI IS A SAFEGUARDING CHURCH

We are a child, young people and
adults at risk organisation.
We are committed to the care,
well-being and protection of children,
young people and adults at risk.
We believe that all God’s children, young people
and adults at risk have the right
to be healthy and safe,
and to have their voice heard,
respected and valued.
