Birmingham Archdiocese adopts, promotes and implements policies for the protection of children and vulnerable adults. St Mary’s Parish policies incorporate Diocesan guidelines.

Our Safeguarding Representative works to ensure we comply with these policies, and receives training for her role. One of their duties is to arrange for all persons who work with our younger parishioners or vulnerable adults to be given clearance by the Criminal Records Bureau (CRB).

The Safeguarding Representative for St Mary’s Church, Studley is Helen Woodhouse.
