Safeguarding Audit of the Diocese of London
Over a five-year period, from 2023 – 2028, independent safeguarding audits are being carried out in every diocese across the Church of England. The audit for the Diocese of London began in May. We need your help: A vital part of the independent audit is for as many people as possible in our communities to complete a survey. It’s important for as many voices as possible to be represented, so that the auditors gain a real picture of the culture in our diocese.
There are several surveys, each for different groups of people. You are encouraged to complete as many surveys are as relevant to you. The surveys are anonymous. Each survey should only take 10 minutes.
Click here to view and complete the surveys on the INEQE website.
