Safeguarding

Safeguarding children, young people and adults. Creating a safer church community together.

 

The Emmanu’-EL Apostolic Gospel Academy (EAGA) is committed to safeguarding children and adults in need of protection. The EAGA leadership therefore acknowledges that safeguarding is of paramount importance in the life of every person and as such commits to offer a caring environment in all activities at our place of worship and in the community. This is the nature of Jesus Christ who is our Lord and saviour and in whom we believe in. Therefore, as a faith community who are law-abiding, we are guided by the safeguarding policy of children and adults.
