|Every person has a value and dignity which comes directly from the creation of male|||
|and female<br>In God's own image and likeness.|||
|Christians see this potential<br>as fulfilled<br>by God's re-creation ofus in Christ.|||
|Among other things this implies a duty to value all people as bearing the image|||
|of God and therefore to protect them from harm.|||
|Methodist<br>Connexional<br>practice outlines commitment<br>to the following<br>principles:|||
|a) The care and nurture<br>and respectful<br>ministry<br>with all children<br>and young people|and|adults.|
|b) The safeguarding<br>and protection ofag children<br>and young people and adults when|||
|they are vulnerable.|||
|c) Byestablishing<br>ofsafe caring communities<br>which provide a loving environment|where||
|there is informed vigilance as to the dangers ofabuse.|||
|d) We will carefully select and train all those with any responsibility<br>within the church||in love|
|with safer recruitment<br>principles<br>including the use ofcriminal<br>records disclosures<br>and|||
|registration<br>with the relevant<br>vetting and barring schemes.|||
|e) We will respond without<br>delay to every complaint<br>made which suggests that an|adult,||
|child or young person may have been harmed,<br>by co-operating<br>with the police and|||
|local authority<br>in any Investigation.|||
|f) We will seek to work with anyone who has suffered abuse developing<br>with them|||
|an appropriate<br>ministry of informed<br>pastoral care.|||
|g) We will seek to challenge<br>any abuse of power especially<br>by anyone<br>in a position|oftrust.||
|h) We will seek to offer pastoral care and support<br>including<br>supervision<br>and refer to|||
|the proper authorities<br>any member ofour church community<br>known to have offended|||
|against a child or young person or vulnerable<br>adult.|||
|I) In all these principles<br>will follow legislation<br>guidance<br>and recognised good practice.|||
|The North Wiltshire circuit commits Itself to ensuring<br>the implementation<br>of Connexional|||
|safeguarding<br>policy; government<br>legislation, guidance<br>and safe practice in the circuit and|||
