our commitment to
a safe church
The Uniting Church in Australia (UCA) believes that all people are made in the image of God, and that our relationships with each other should express love, integrity, compassion, and respect, to encounter God and to grow in faith.
At Gerringong Uniting Church we are dedicated to educating our staff, volunteers, and members on child abuse risks. This includes a Code of Conduct for our leaders, staff, and volunteers, guidelines for activities with children and young people, and robust recruitment processes to ensure all staff and volunteers undergo appropriate screening, including 'Working With Children Checks' (WWCC). We are committed to good recruitment, education, and fulfilling our legal responsibilities through our various policies and codes.
We welcome feedback from anyone with an interest in this commitment, including children. If you would like further information, or to give feedback, please contact Steve Everist on 0431 677 846 or any member of the Church Council.
