Last month, the Catholic Church in Scotland published its new safeguarding manual, In God’s Image, offering comprehensive guidance and instruction on every aspect of safeguarding in the church.
It has been shaped by the recent experience and developing expertise of those involved in the front line of safeguarding in the church, both in Scotland and internationally.
In signing and ratifying this publication, the bishops of Scotland took the opportunity to repeat and renew apologies made to those who have suffered any form of abuse, at any time, by anyone representing the church.
We aspire to the highest standards of care and protection and we are committed to rebuilding trust and confidence in the ways in which we ensure that children, young people and vulnerable adults are kept safe.
