Safeguarding: Our benefice of Mid-Loes is committed to safeguarding children, young people, and adults from harm. We follow the House of Bishops' guidance and policies and have our own Safeguarding Officer. Our Diocese of St Edmundsbury & Ipswich’s safeguarding pages contain vital links and information including contacts for the Diocesan Safeguarding Officer who advises our Safeguarding Officer. If you are concerned that a child or adult has been harmed or may be at risk of harm, please contact our Safeguarding Officer Revd Gary Best (contact details above) or the Diocesan Safeguarding Officer, Karen Galloway on 07785 621319 or email safeguarding@cofesuffolk.org. If you have immediate concerns about the safety of someone, please contact the police and your local authority’s children or adult social care services.  Further information can be found on the diocesan website Promoting a safer church - Diocese of St Edmundsbury and Ipswich.

The Benefice of Mid-Loes adheres to the Church of England's 'Promoting  A Safer Church Policy', which can be found by clicking here.
