Catholic Safeguarding Commission responds to abuse documentary

The National Catholic Safeguarding Commission has issued the following statement in response to last night's BBC1 documentary 'Abused: Breaking the Silence'.

The National Catholic Safeguarding Commission acknowledge with deep concern and regret the hurt and damage caused to so many by certain members of the Rosminian Congregation. We would want to encourage victims of any form of abuse from within the Church to come forward and seek to have their stories heard and understood.

The Order is now working to ensure their Safeguarding practices are fully in line with the Church's policies and procedures.
