Parish Safeguarding Dashboard

Parish Safeguarding Dashboard

• The Parish Safeguarding Dashboard was introduced to St Albans Diocese in 2019.
• It is free of charge to parishes.
• The dashboard is a way of keeping all your safeguarding records together, at a glance, with an easy system that tells you whether you are compliant with the many House of Bishops’ safeguarding requirements.
• This is not over and above what you already do, but puts all your records together in one place.
• It is easy to use and has been extremely well received by all parishes in other dioceses.
• Please see the attached website below and watch this short video:

• Not only will this give you the chance to monitor all your safeguarding responsibilities in one place, but it will enable the diocesan safeguarding team to have oversight of all the parishes that participate and help us identify and support those who may struggle.
• It an extremely useful safeguarding tool and we encourage every parish to use it.
• We expect PSO’s to have ownership and complete the dashboard however other church leaders can have viewing access.
• Please see the Safeguarding Dashboards Guide
