It is a requirement that the following attend an introduction to safe ministry training
(ChurchSafe) followed by a refresher every three years:
• All those in leadership roles; including: Church Council members, Liturgical Assistants, LPM”s, Treasurer, Warden, Welcomers,
• Church workers and paid employees who are actively involved in children’s ministry and activities.
Whilst the Diocese recognises there are many community programs available, all church workers must
attend training that is facilitated and accredited by the Diocese in keeping with the Safe Ministry to
Children Canon and the Safe Ministry Training Benchmarks.
NB: ChurchSafe training primarily focusses on child sexual abuse and prevention strategies as required by
the Safe Ministry to Children Canon (2017). The course content can be graphic and anyone who attends
this training and is distressed by the content should speak with the Presenter, the Director of Professional
Standards or your Parish Priest.
All sessions can be viewed on the Diocesan website
Attendance is by registration only so that numbers can be monitored for physical distancing and catering
purposes. If you cannot attend after registering for the event, please advise
