Child Protection & Adults at Risk within St. Andrew’s—The Archdiocese now requires all Volunteers within our Parish to attend a Training Session. This will take place on Saturday 19th February 2011 from 10.00 a.m. to 12.00 noon. The Session will be held jointly with the Volunteers within St. Joseph's Milngavie, at St. Joseph’s Parish Hall. It is recognised that Saturday morning is not necessarily an ideal time for many people (particularly parents with young children) but with family and work commitments, there is never going to be a day or a time that suits everyone. All Volunteers within the Parish should at this point in time enter this date in their diaries and Michael McGovern, the Parish Co-ordinator, will shortly be writing to all Volunteers with more details and for confirmation that they will be able to attend. The purpose of this Notice is to give volunteers adequate notice of the Session.
