Safeguarding at KTLCC
Welcome to the Safeguarding page of Kensington Temple London City Church (KTLCC). Here at KTLCC, we are deeply committed to safeguarding and promoting the well-being of everyone connected to our community. We strive to create a safe, loving, and supportive environment where everyone can thrive.
Our Safeguarding Policy is available below for you to review, and we’re also happy to send you a copy upon request.
On this page, you’ll also find a selection of training videos designed to equip you with the knowledge and skills to keep everyone—especially children and vulnerable adults—safe.
Safeguarding is central to our mission because:
- Abuse can occur in any setting, and we recognize the importance of vigilance to protect children and adults at risk.
- It would be naïve to believe that abuse could never happen within our church community.
- Those who abuse do not look different from others; they may be friends, relatives, or even people in trusted positions. Therefore, anyone could potentially harm a vulnerable individual, underscoring the need for awareness and protective measures.
In addition to our commitment to Jesus’s call to be our brothers’ and sisters’ keeper, UK legislation and guidance mandate us to actively ensure the safety of those around us.
At KTLCC, we prioritize safeguarding, grounded in our faith and our commitment to a safe community for everyone.

Statement of Commitment to Safeguarding
‘‘Elim is committed to creating healthy churches and safe spaces for all. We recognise the ways in which children and adults can be at risk of harm or abuse, so endeavour to create a culture to minimise opportunities for abuse to occur. Children rely on adults to keep them safe, therefore all our churches working with children, either directly or indirectly, are committed to safeguarding children in their care. We seek to do this by providing a safe, stable, and nurturing environment where children can reach their full potential. Similarly, within our churches there are adults in need of protection, care and support due to vulnerability, whether that is a permanent or temporary state. We are aware too that within our churches there are relationships of trust, which flourish best within healthy churches and environments, where there is openness, transparency and accountability.
We firmly believe that safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility, and all involved in the life of our churches and activities have a role to play in keeping children, young people and adults safe.’’
Mark Pugh – General Superintendent
At KTLCC, safeguarding is our priority, and we are here to support you in fulfilling this responsibility.
