A new safeguarding Advisor has been appointed to the post for the Methodist Church and the Church of England. Rev Pearl Luxon is now scheduled to take up her new position in September 2006.

The new opening will be made available to Luxon after the retirement of Mrs Jane Hind as the National Child Protection Advisor for the Church of England, reveal the Methodist Church.

The move is very historic, and is the first time that a national joint post has been created by the two churches since the Anglican-Methodist Covenant was signed in November 2003.

Rev Luxon commented, “Creating this post allows the two churches to speak with one voice. It shows the seriousness with which both Churches take child protection.”
