The current parish tools, safeguarding and data context, competent local authority, scope and exact fee are confirmed before commitment.
What needs to be in place?
Current parish tools; safeguarding/data context; competent local authority.
What is outside the scope?
No canonical/legal opinion beyond competence; no diocesan policy authority.
Why is the parish context important?
The service is designed around parish operations and volunteer contexts, including the actual safeguarding and data environment. It does not assume that a generic corporate AI policy can simply be copied across.
Start with the tools
Where are digital or AI use rules unclear?
Tell us which tools are in use, who uses them and the safeguarding or data concerns that matter. We will define the governance boundary before anything is agreed.
