A Safe Environment

Safeguarding is everyone's responsibility. In the Catholic Parish of Melton, we consider the safety and wellbeing of all persons to be our highest priority.

We too acknowledge that children, young people, and adults at risk may require additional safeguards to promote their participation, wellbeing, and safety.


Clergy, staff, and volunteers of this parish community are committed to upholding the right to safety of all persons and participating in and creating a culture of safety supported by policies, practices and procedures that strive to prevent abuse in the first instance and to respond appropriately and effectively if abuse does occur. We respect the human dignity of each person and strive to create an inclusive and welcoming Church that enables its people to grow and develop in their faith freely and in a caring and supportive environment.
