Safeguarding

THE UNITED SYNAGOGUE IS ALWAYS ALERT TO ANY THREAT TO CHILDREN AND VULNERABLE ADULTS FROM PEOPLE WHO WOULD SEEK TO DO THEM HARM –WHETHER BY PHYSICAL, EMOTIONAL OR SEXUAL ABUSE OR BY NEGLECT.

Within every United Synagogue community, there is at least one volunteer Community Safeguarding Coordinator (CSC) – someone within the community who is the primary point of contact at a local level for members of the shul if they have any concerns concerning child protection or the protection of vulnerable adults.

Golders Green’s Community Safeguarding Coordinator is Rachel Clark who is the first point of contact for our community and will refer any concerns to and receive advice from the United Synagogue Head Office Safeguarding Team.

If you have a concern and would prefer to speak to someone within the United Synagogue Head Office Safeguarding team, you can reach them on 020 3758 8440. You can use this number for any safeguarding concerns either current or historic. If ever you believe someone to be at serious imminent risk, you MUST call 999.
