Modern Slavery

All Saints, Kenley and St Barnabas, Purley commit to doing all in our power to make our Churches free of modern slavery.

The aim is to eradicate forced labour, modern slavery and human trafficking and secure the prohibition and elimination of the worst forms of child labour.

We will work proactively with others in our local community to:

  • Provide regularly updated training for our congregations to recognise the potential signs of slavery.

  • Provide regularly updated training for our congregations so that they know how to respond and report any suspected signs of slavery.

  • Do all we can to use recruitment methods that minimise the possibility of slavery.

  • Ensure that our suppliers and contractors have employment procedures that eliminate the risk of employing victims of slavery.
  • Display posters in places that our congregations and visitors will see regularly such as toilet doors, notice boards.

  • Regularly promote messages about slavery and how we can work to eliminate this in our communities that we live in with our congregations.

  • Provide a modern slavery statement which will be published on our website and other promotional materials.

  • Share intelligence and information to help detect slavery, and ensure it cannot take root, with any of:
