Safeguarding Service

Harm or abuse of children and adults at risk can happen anywhere - even in church communities. We have a duty to Ensure a Safe Church for All. This means protecting children and "adults at risk".

The Church aims to minimise the risk of harm occurring. If harm or abuse does occur, with appropriate support and training, it will be recognised and reported. If it occurs we will work with the Police and Social Work services if appropriate.

We provide a service for Church Councils, congregations, and over 70 CrossReach services.

If you require any further information please contact the Church Office, or safeguarding@churchofscotland.org.uk

Church opening for visitors on Saturdays.

If you can spare a couple of hours one Saturday, we would to encourage congregation members to volunteer a little of their time. If you are able, please consider putting your name on the Rota Sheet in the Front Vestibule.

A word from our Treasurer.

In light of the present circumstances when the Church is struggling for regular income there is something you can do if you presently give by WFO envelopes. Please consider giving by regular monthly or weekly bank standing order. This can be arranged directly with your bank or you can contact the joint treasurer Fred Stevenson who will provide you with the necessary form. If you wish you can go back to giving by WFO envelopes when things return to normal. Fred can be contacted on 01292 443559 or by email fmgstevenson@gmail.com.
