INEQE Safeguarding Group have been asked to carry out Safeguarding Audits of the Church of England to make sure dioceses, cathedrals and palaces are doing all they can to create environments where everyone feels safe, valued and respected.
As part of the audit process, INEQE hope to engage with those who visit, attend services or worship at the Cathedral through an online survey. This will act as a mechanism through which individuals can comment on any matters relevant to the Audit’s focus.
The survey is both anonymous (they are not seeking to identify you) and confidential (you will not be identified). INEQE would therefore ask you to be open and honest with your responses. The survey results are received directly by INEQE’s Audit Team and not by the Church of England.
The survey is now live and will close at 11.30 pm on Tuesday 30th July 2024.

NOTE: The only time an individual’s confidential engagement with the Audit team might be breached would be in the event of a disclosure of suspected harm to a child, adult at risk or criminal conduct. In such circumstances the information will only be shared with the appropriate statutory agency.
INEQE look forward to hearing from you and want to encourage each of you to share your views and experiences with us.
