Safeguarding

Keeping Young People Safe

We take the safeguarding of our young people incredibly seriously, because we love them and want Fires to be a place where every one of them is safe, valued, and respected. Our leaders follow our church safeguarding policies, and we’re members of thirtyone:eight, an independent Christian safeguarding charity. If you ever have a concern or worry, please email our safeguarding team straight away.

Fires FAQ

Questions About Fires

Who is Fires for?

Fires is for young people aged 11 to 18 and runs on Thursday nights, 7pm to 9pm. It’s separate from our Sunday morning youth group for 11s and over, which meets during the service.

Do I need to be a Christian to come?

Not at all. Fires is for everyone, whether you’ve followed Jesus for years, you’re still figuring things out, or you’ve never really thought about Him. Bring a friend!

What actually happens on a Thursday night?

Worship, a talk from the Bible, time to chat about it together, and plenty of games and laughs. No two Thursdays are quite the same.

Can I bring a friend?

Yes please! Friends are always welcome, whether they’ve been to church loads or never. It’s even better with your mates.

What do I need to bring?

Just yourself (and maybe a friend). Your best table football skills are optional, but highly recommended.

Are the leaders actually cool?

We’d like to think so, but you can be the judge. What we can promise is that they love Jesus, love young people, and are always up for a chat. Keeping young people safe matters hugely to us too, and parents can read about our safeguarding. Their dance moves are another story.
