Safeguarding
Keeping young people and vulnerable adults taking part in our parish activities safe.
Safeguarding
The Archdiocese of Dublin and the Parish of Foxrock, value and encourage the participation of children and young people in parish liturgies and in Diocesan activities in order to enhance their spiritual, physical, emotional, intellectual and social development. We recognise the dignity and rights of all children and are committed to ensuring their protection from all forms of abuse.
This is a commitment binding on all priests and on those who work in our Diocesan offices and agencies, and in our parishes. It extends to all the many and varied ways that children share in the life of the Church in our Diocese.
Where young people are participating in parish activities their parents will also be required to complete a consent form and the young person will be provided with a code of conduct.
