The Congregation of the Sisters of Nazareth, in partnership with Nazareth Care, is committed to safeguarding all children and adults.
Everyone has the right to the highest level of protection, love, dignity, respect and encouragement. To achieve this, we are committed to promoting and maintaining safe and supportive environments for all, including children and adults at risk. We seek to uphold the highest safeguarding standards in our relationships with people of all ages who are involved in the Church and our Congregation.
We recognise the role that everyone has to play in safeguarding children and adults and welcome input on how to meet their needs safely and respectfully. We insist on a zero-tolerance approach to abuse or neglect by anyone connected to the Congregation.
Our commitment stems from the belief in the dignity of every person and the founding vision and Gospel values of the Congregation.
If you are concerned about the safety of a child or adult who you believe is in imminent danger, contact the police in your area. If you would like to get in touch in relation to safeguarding, or have been hurt and would like to discuss care and support, please contact: safeguarding.generalate@sistersofnazareth.com or in England and Wales you can contact the independent support service Safe Spaces.
