Taking Care
We follow the Child Protection Policy adopted by the Methodist Church in Ireland.
'The Methodist Church in Ireland is committed to the wellbeing of the children and young people among them and to that end in 1995 put together the first Child Protection Policy called ‘Keep Them Safe.’ This document was used by the other churches as they sought to develop their policies. In 2004, in conjunction with the Presbyterian Board of Social Witness, an updated and expanded policy was put in place called, 'Taking Care'. This is the document on which our child protection policies are based.'
