The Diocese of Meath recognises and upholds the dignity
and rights of all children and is committed to ensuring their
safety and well-being. The Diocese values and encourages the
participation of children in parish liturgies and in all activities
that enhance their spiritual, physical, emotional, intellectual
and social development.
The Diocese recognises the need to
protect children and aims to do this in
a way that promotes their dignity and
integrity as children of God. While child
protection is everyone’s responsibility,
all involved in working with young
people have a special duty of care
towards them.
The Diocese has put procedures in
place through which this care is put into
effect. All clergy, staff and volunteers
are required to comply with the policy
procedures and practices outlined in
the policy document which can be
accessed at www.dioceseofmeath.ie
