Committees
The Church of Scotland has a deep concern for the
Wholeness and well-being of each individual.
Through its Safeguarding Office and its contacts with the
Statutory Agencies, the Church seeks to safeguard the
welfare of all people, regardless of age, who come into
contact with the Church and its organisations.
“Of Such is the Kingdom of Heaven’, the report of the
Forgiveness & Proportionality Working Group, affirms that it
is the responsibility of each individual within the fellowship
of the Church to prevent harm.
Harm or abuse of any type or level towards children, young
people or adults at risk is unacceptable and we will always
strive to minimise the risk of harm occurring.
