🔐 Safeguarding

Guildford Cathedral is committed to the care and protection of children, young people, and vulnerable adults. Some volunteer roles may require a DBS check and the completion of a Confidential Declaration Form.

All volunteers will be asked to provide two references, and we expect everyone to support the Christian aims and mission of the Cathedral in their role.
