We welcome children and other baptised Christians to receive communion in our church. This policy outlines our welcome to those who wish to receive communion before confirmation.

Pcc Members (the Trustees) of HTP have a duty to act in the best interests of HTP and must not use their position as a trustee to their own personal benefit. Conflicts of interest occur when a trustee’s personal or business interests or the interests of any person or organisation to which the trustee is connected conflict, or have the potential to conflict, with the interests of HTP.

Our Health and Safety policy is a really simple. We've thought about everything we do, and if you follow these simple procedures you'll know that you are being safe—protecting yourself and other people. And, as a church, it means we can let people get on with activities without worry. The Health and Safety Policy is really simple to use. Download the policy relating to your activity. (These policies are also printed, and copies are placed in suitable locations.) In each policy document you'll find a short description of the risks we've identified and a table of actions to take to minimise and manage the risks. Make sure you, and anyone you're working with, follows those Required Actions. It's as simple as that. It is absolutely imperative that people follow the Required Actions for the activity they are undertaking. If we use our common sense and follow the Required Actions we know we are safe. If we don't, we are not safe, and we are creating risks for ourselves and others—both physical risks, and risks of liability if something goes wrong. So please follow these simple policies and enjoy what you do!

Your privacy is important to us. We collect, use, record and destroy data in line with our Privacy Policy.

The care and protection of children, young people and vulnerable adults involved in Church life is the responsibility of the whole Church. Everyone who participates in the life of the Church has a role to play in promoting a Safer Church for all. Here is our safeguarding policy, which is renewed every year. If you need to contact someone regarding safeguarding or child protection, please get hold of our Safeguarding Contacts.
