Every church in Coventry Diocese has been asked to do a review of their records. This is to ensure that all known instances of concern about abuse by church officers, in recent to distant past, have been reported to the Diocesan Safeguarding Team.

If you are aware of any concerns from the past, please speak to Kate.
