The Perth Catholic Archdiocese is committed to the safety and security of all children and young people
The Diocese recognises the need to protect children, young people and vulnerable adults and aims to achieve this through the Safeguarding Project. The Project is child focused and informed by a fundamental belief that children have the right to physical and psychological safety at all times.
Policies and proceedures have been put in place throughout the parish and all clergy, staff and volunteers are required to comply with the policy, procedures and practices outlined in the project. Trained Safeguarding Officers have been appointed your parish and their role is to assist you in all matters pertaining to concerns regarding the safety of children and vulnerable adults.
If you have any safety concerns about a person in the parish or about a child protection or child safety issue, you can discuss it with our Parish Safeguarding Officers Caroline Bourke (m: 0411 145 076) or Mary-Ann Bath (m: 0437 799 169)
