A Safeguarding Hub  can automatically send reminders to church volunteers, employees or other church officers.

For example, it can remind people when:

• A new DBS check is required
• Safeguarding training needs to be undertaken or refreshed
• Other safeguarding actions are requred

These automatic reminders can significantly reduce the workload of Parish Safeguarding Officers or Church Administrators.
 

Inviting someone to receive safeguarding reminders

A Safeguarding Hub  will only send reminders to people who have given their consent.

An authorised Hub User can request consent by:

• Finding the person in the People Manager
• Selecting Safeguarding Reminders
• Entering their email address

The Safeguarding Hub will immediately send the person an invitation to receive safeguarding reminders.

If the invitation is accepted, the Hub will store their email address.
 

Stopping safeguarding reminders

Every safeguarding reminder has two links in the footer:

• Unsubscribe - This will delete the person's email address
• Change email address - This will enable a new email address to replace the current one
