No public safeguarding reports
Do not submit confidential safeguarding disclosures for publication through Testimonies, Events, Prayer Requests or directory forms.
Safeguarding
Safeguarding children and adults at risk is a responsibility that Christian ministry must take seriously.
Important principle
Local organisations retain their responsibilities
Britain for Christ is a website and ministry initiative. A church appearing in the directory remains responsible for its own safeguarding policies, safer recruitment, training, reporting, pastoral practice and compliance with applicable requirements.
Directory inclusion should never be treated as evidence that Britain for Christ has inspected or approved a church's safeguarding arrangements.
If someone is at immediate risk
Do not rely on a website contact form or ordinary email. Contact the appropriate emergency, police, social-care or safeguarding service without delay.
Website safeguarding
Our safeguards
Minimise personal information
Forms ask users to avoid sensitive personal data, medical records, allegations and information about children or vulnerable people.
Event information
Events are submitted for review rather than automatically published. Event organisers remain responsible for safeguarding and risk management.
Photographs & testimony
People should not be photographed, identified or quoted publicly without appropriate permission, particularly children and vulnerable adults.
Church links
External church links take visitors to independent organisations. Their own safeguarding policies and contacts should be checked directly.
Concerns about this website
If website content itself raises a safeguarding concern, contact Britain for Christ and clearly mark the message as a safeguarding concern.
Important: Britain for Christ is not an emergency service, statutory safeguarding authority or substitute for a church's designated safeguarding lead or relevant professional agency.
