WelCom August 2020
A poster about Safeguarding has been sent to all parishes in the Wellington Archdiocese to highlight and support Safeguarding matters and ongoing awareness.
During and after lockdown over the last few weeks Safeguarding Workshops with parish leadership teams were continued by Zoom technology. With the cold and wet winter weather, people have appreciated being able to discuss safeguarding matters from the warmth of their homes.
Safeguarding Adviser Brendy Weir will visit all parishes in the archdiocese during August to meet with leadership teams and discuss the progress of Safeguarding work in each parish. Additional workshops will be provided if needed.
For more information or any questions please contact: Brendy Weir, Safeguarding Adviser, Archdiocese of Wellington, email: b.weir@wn.catholic.org.nz or ph (04) 496-1768 or 021 1958 307.
Safeguarding is about ensuring we have a culture and environment where the safety of children, young people and adults is paramount. Safeguarding is about the physical, emotional, spiritual and sexual safety of everyone.
